Yesterland
I often visit Yesterland in my free time. Do you know Yesterland? Yesterland is a “lost Disneyland” operated by volunteer Disney fans.
If you click through its large amount of articles, you can enjoy past attractions, restaurants, and entertainment without waiting in long lines.
Thanks to this website, I've learned not only the history of Disneyland in the U.S., but also various English words and expressions. However, unfortunately, a large part of its content is focused on Anaheim and Orlando, so there is little information about Tokyo, Paris, and Hong Kong. Shanghai doesn’t exist there at all.
Today, everyone can easily post the latest Disney information on social media, so I’m more interested in past Disney than the latest information. Besides Yesterland, I often watch YouTube videos about Disney from the 2010s or earlier.
Of course, in Japan as well, Disney blogs and YouTube videos are flourishing. However, there isn’t an unofficial website that systematically archives the history of Tokyo Disney Resort. When Japanese Disney fans talk about past TDR, they often idealize the past and criticize the present, which irritates me. I think the past has its own merits, and the present has its own merits.
Looking at the history of attractions, I’m surprised that many “new” attractions in the past were just minor interior changes, unlike recent large-scale updates, such as the change from Splash Mountain to Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. Also, it seems that movies that didn’t fit the theme lands were sometimes promoted there. Maybe guests and Imagineers in the past were more flexible.
私は空き時間にYesterlandを訪れています。皆さんはYesterlandをご存じですか？
Yesterlandとは、ディズニーファン有志が運営する「失われたディズニーランド」なのです。
Yesterland内の膨大な記事をクリックされすれば、長時間並ぶことなくアトラクションやレストラン、ショーを追体験できます。
私はこのサイトを通じて、本国ディズニーランドの歴史だけでなく、英語を学びました。惜しむらくは、「敷地」の大半がアナハイムとオーランドに割かれており、東京やパリ、香港の情報は極僅か……という点でしょうか。上海に至っては、痕跡が全くありません。
誰もが気軽にSNSに「ディズニー最新情報」を発信できる時代だからこそ、「過去」への欲求が高まります。Yesterlandに限らず、2010年代以前の情報を発信するYoutubeもよく視聴します。
もちろん、日本でもディズニーブログやYoutubeは隆盛ですが、東京ディズニーリゾートの歴史を体系的にまとめた有志サイトはありません。日本のヲタクがTDRの過去に触れる場合、昔のTDRを美化して今のTDRを叩く文脈であることが多いので、うんざりしてしまいます。昔には昔の、今には今の良さがありますから――
昔のアトラクション遍歴を眺めると、今の居抜きアトラクション（スプラッシュマウンテンからティアナへの変更等）よりも簡易な内装変更だけで新アトラクションと言い張っているものが多くて驚きます。また、テーマランドの雰囲気に合わない作品のプロモーションも度々行われていた模様。今よりもゲストもイマジニアも柔軟な思考だったのかな？

I agree with the other commenter. "In my free time, I visit the site 'Yesterland.'" is probably how I would phrase it. However, I think I would just add it how I do in my next correction.

Feedback
I think I'd heard about Yesterland in passing, but hadn't checked it out before. Very interesting!
If you like this type of content and haven't seen it before, I would recommend the Defunctland YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Defunctland/videos
The channel often talks about old Disney attractions, so if there is something you're interested in, it might be worth looking through their back catalog. They talk about other American parks, attractions, and rides. I'd recommend the videos on Action Park, which is an interesting bit of attraction history.

Thanks for the recommendation—I really appreciate it!
I’ve actually seen Defunctland before, but I’ve mostly watched their Disney-related videos. Based on your suggestion, I’ll check out some of their other content as well.

It is grammatically correct but to me, it kind of sounds like a place rather than a website, and although I know you go on to talk about it as a website later, it is a little unclear and when you say click through articles, it really confused me since I thought it was a place. So, maybe you can say it is a website in your explanation of what it is.

I'm a little confused here when you say "new" attractions in the past were just minor changes? Do you mean that in the past, what was just small minor interior changes were seen as "new" attractions? But recently, new attractions include very major large-scale updates?
Maybe you could say something like, "I'm surprised that many of what was categorized as a "new" attraction in the past was actually just a minor interior change, whereas now (unlike now), large-upscale updates such as the change from Splash Mountain to Tiana's Bayou Adventure is what constitutes a "new" attraction.
Also, it seems that movies that didn’t fit the theme lands were sometimes promoted there. Also, it seems that movies that didn’t fit the theme lands were sometimes promoted there.
Promoted where? Movies that didn't fit the theme lands were promoted in the opening of the "new" attractions that were actually minor changes? But, wouldn't the "new" attraction already be built in whatever theme land it was, regardless of if it didn't fit the theme. Sorry, maybe I am misunderstanding this sentence a bit.
Maybe guests and Imagineers in the past were more flexible.
Feedback
Nice writing, thank you for that information. I didn't know about any of that, I will have to give Yesterland a little look. There were just two spots that I felt could have been a little clearer. Hope it helps, keep up the good work!

Thanks so much for your thoughtful feedback—I really appreciate it!
I see what you mean about the “visit” part. I was trying to describe Yesterland as if it were a physical place, almost like exploring a “lost Disneyland,” but I understand how that could be confusing without making it clear from the start that it’s a website.
You’re also absolutely right about the “new attractions” part. What I meant was that in the past, attractions that were labeled as “new” were sometimes just minor interior changes, whereas today, “new” usually refers to much larger-scale updates. I’ll try to make that clearer.
And thank you for pointing out the part about the promotions—that’s exactly what I was trying to say, but I didn’t explain it well enough.
Really appreciate your help!
