SLEEPING BEAUTY CASTLE

Jay remembers The Sleeping Beauty Diorama

“My recollection of the Sleeping Beauty Diorama goes back to my 1st visit when I believe it required either an A or B ticket. Later on my parents bought the unlimited ride package where my brother and I wore red wrist bands. I remember entering on the right side of the building coming from Main Street. Upon entering, it had a stone-like appearance on the floor and walls lit by a soft greenish light. The walls were lined with pictures of the Sleeping Beauty story as one climbed the stairs. Once at the top of the stairs, there was Sleeping beauty lying under a glass enclosed casing. If you looked closely, you could see her chest move as if she were breathing. Then as you passed by, you’d walk down another set of stairs with more pictures of the story, and you came out on the left side of the castle.”
