Disneyland Texas Resort

The Disneyland Texas Resort is an entertainment resort located in Northlake and Argyle, Texas, near the cities of Fort Worth and Dallas. It is owned and operated by The Walt Disney Company through its Parks, Experiences and Products division and is home to 3 theme parks (Disneyland Texas, Westcot, Discovery-Land), 4 hotels, and an entertainment and shopping district (Disney City).

The resort was founded in 2027, as part of Disney's Project Entertainment, a project where Disney refurbishes and creates new theme parks all across the world, especially in the United States. When it opened, the resort contained Disneyland Texas, a 29.43 acre parking lot, and 1 hotel. In the following years, the resort will expanded, adding Westcot in 2035, Discovery-Land in 2047, and Disney City in 2031, with expansion to the main theme park in 2030 and 2039.

The resort has garnered massively positive reviews across the theme park industry, giving it praise for its innovative technology, modern version of classic Disney attractions, and unique themed lands. Even though for its praise, the park still garnered massive controversy, especially due to it being knew a massive suburb in Argyle, resulting in Disney buying and destroying the suburb to make way for Discovery-Land. On 2050, Disney filed a request to Denton County to make the Disneyland Texas Resort and other surrounding lands to an unincorporated community in Denton County similar that of Universal City in Los Angeles County, named Disney Kingdom, the request is still waiting approval form the county government.
