Nara Dreamland
Japan · built 1961
Nara Dreamland (Hepburn: Nara Dorīmurando), or just simply Dreamland, was a theme park near Nara, Japan, heavily inspired by Disneyland in California. It opened in 1961 and was successful until the opening of Tokyo Disneyland in 1983 which caused attendance to drop. Attendance fell even further after Tokyo DisneySea and Universal Studios Japan, leading to its permanent closure in 2006. The park was left abandoned until it was demolished between October 2016 and December 2017.
