Pirates of the Caribbean

It would be hard to discuss one of the best Disneyland attractions without including Pirates of the Caribbean. Since it originally debuted in 1967, decades before the films, Pirates of the Caribbean has consistently ranked among Disney's best attractions, and it doesn't require their mention to maintain its allure. The ride is still largely the same as you remember it from your youth—a leisurely boat journey through hilarious recreations of Hollywood-style pirate scenes—but Disney has now attempted to impose the basic bones of a Jack Sparrow tale. It's simple to overlook if necessary, and the most of the ride's iconic sequences are still present.

In 2018, the auction scene was updated to eliminate the entire human trafficking part, but it's simple to understand why they'd do that now. Pirates of the Caribbean elevated the dark ride idea to an epic level and is still regarded as a marvel of fantasy creation. The Castillo del Morro, a gilded Spanish fortification modeled after the Castillo de San Felipe del Morro in Puerto Rico's Old San Juan, houses the Caribbean watchtower Torre del Sol that guards the ride.
