The Dragon Sleeping Beneath the Castle
Beneath Sleeping Beauty Castle hides one of Disneyland Paris' most spellbinding secrets: La Tanière du Dragon (The Dragon's Lair).

Deep inside a dark cave, surrounded by jagged rocks and mysterious echoes, lives a massive animatronic dragon that appears to be fast asleep... until it begins to stir.
This brilliant detail turns a visit to the castle into an epic adventure. Instead of just heading upstairs to admire the stained glass windows, you can descend directly into the dungeon and come face-to-face with the beast.
For years, the dragon has remained one of those breathtaking secrets that completely amazes first-time visitors, largely because there is absolutely no hint from the outside of the magnificent creature lurking just below.
Tip: Don’t just walk through quickly. Linger for a moment to watch it, as its movements shift and it doesn't always react the same way right away.
