Keep an eye out for this new attraction the next time you visit Tokyo Disneyland.
Tokyo Disneyland has been working on an expansion of its Fantasyland area since 2017, which was expected to be completed by spring 2020.
Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast
One new attraction is the Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast, an area that features the characters and setting from the iconic Disney film.
The attraction's main appeal, though, has to be its majestic pink and purple castle with some white gargoyles.

Adding to the fairytale-like attraction is an impressive Gaston placed right in the middle of the area.

Magical castle ride
The construction of the Beauty and the Beast ride is also well underway.
The ride will allow visitors to travel in teacups that will bring them around the castle and watch their favourite characters come to life.

Can't visit just yet
Unfortunately, with Japan's Covid-19 travel ban in place, we might have to wait a while before we can even plan a trip to Disneyland.
Still, there's no harm in putting it on our bucket list for now.
