Anyone find theme parks... quite odd?

Like they're these almost scared places of joy and adventure. Especially the Disney parks.

But in reality they're like three miles by three miles square (of course the Orlando one is quite spread out), and the minute you break that magic and see all the back lots and service areas. Y'know, there's like a five-lane interstate road within a few meters of some of the rides.

I just find the contrast between the two kind of interesting, and for example how much work Disney put into making places the size of a few football pitches seem like the whole world whilst you're in them.

That whole park is going to be devoid of green space and any remaining naturalistic feel once the rivers of America are filled in.

Disney does a good job at maintaining the illusion. Most theme parks just kind of half-ass it.
If you really want immersion in a theme park, you have to go to at Halloween. Knotts Berry Farm in southern California really does it right. They hire hundreds of actors to walk around the park, they set up a dozen mazes, they do shows all over the park, they hire bands to perform every night. They divide the park up into separate themed areas. It's the best Halloween attraction I've ever been to.

The 90s especially was quite odd with theme parks.
