Downtown Disney is an outdoor shopping, dining, and entertainment area located at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California. It was constructed during the Disneyland Resort expansion which also included the construction of Disney's California Adventure opening in 2001. Downtown Disney occupies a space in between Disney's California Adventure and Disneyland park on the western side of the resort, west to Disneyland Hotel. Part of Anaheim's Downtown Disney is built on a bridge over Disneyland Drive (formerly West Street). It is smaller than its Florida namesake. Currently, no admission ticket is required for Downtown Disney. The location of the Disneyland Hotel Monorail station was incorporated into the Downtown Disney area, while never physically moving the station's location.
