On This Day July 17

Walt Disney opened his Disneyland theme park on July 17, 1955. He got his idea and inspiration when he visited the "Tivoli"-park in Denmark. The $17 million theme park was built on 160 acres of former orange groves in Anaheim, California. In 1955, the admission for an adult ticket to Disneyland cost $1, which was then only double the price of a movie ticket. Disneyland had 18 attractions on its opening day.
