π Disneyland Side-Trip Guide: Anaheim GardenWalk π
Just southeast of Disneyland in Anaheim lies the festive Anaheim GardenWalk β beautifully decorated for a Merry Christmas! π β¨ Located north of W Katella Ave, right next to Disney, this commercial area features a charming two-level pedestrian street connected to a four-story parking structure π ΏοΈποΈ. For even easier parking, try the open (and free!) lot at the northeast corner of W Katella Ave and Sharbor Blvd, near California Pizza Kitchen ππ. Food highlights include a Japanese beef restaurant π and a hot pot spot π² β both great for visitors craving familiar flavors! The whole walkway is full of dining, entertainment, and holiday fun β every storefront is decked out in Christmas decor πβ€οΈ, and the central pterodactyl sculpture adds a fun touch π¦. I accompanied a couple who went off to Disneyland for some fun, which gave me the perfect chance to explore the area π§β¨. The only downside β many places were closed on Christmas Day itself. But one thingβs for sure: this is a must-visit spot near Disneyland π°π«, and itβs especially perfect for those tagging along but not entering the parks! #Disneyland #Anaheim #GardenWalk #ChristmasInAnaheim #TravelTips #SoCalGuide
