La Tanière du Dragon, Dragon animatronic attraction at Disneyland Paris, France
Located beneath Sleeping Beauty Castle, this underground cavern houses a 27-meter animatronic dragon that moves, breathes smoke, and interacts with its surroundings.
When it opened in 2000, La Tanière du Dragon represented the largest animatronic figure created by Disney, setting new standards for theme park technology.
The attraction incorporates elements of French medieval folklore and dragon mythology, reinforcing connections between Disney stories and European storytelling traditions.
Visitors should plan their visit during morning hours or parade times to experience shorter wait times and capture better photographs in the low-light environment.
The dragon responds to surrounding movements through advanced sensors, creating different reactions as guests walk through the carefully designed castle dungeons.
