Does anyone have a time machine we can use? We'd like to make a stop in Anaheim, CA, circa 1955. These vintage photos from the opening day and year of Disneyland are a blast from the past that will make you fall in the love with the park all over again. It's amazing to see all of the things that have changed in the years since the park opened but even cooler to note the things that haven't. Celebrate Disneyland's upcoming 60th anniversary by checking out these beautiful old pictures.

Walt Disney himself took the reins and showed guests around Main Street.
In 1955, eager parkgoers flooded the streets in their rush to visit Sleeping Beauty's castle.
A group of showgirls sat outside the Golden Horseshoe saloon and enjoyed a cold drink to celebrate the opening.
The go-carts at Disneyland looked a little different back in 1955.
Tomorrowland has changed a lot over the last 50+ years — the PeopleMover is now a thing of the past.
Kids celebrated opening day by seeing some of the scarier attractions, like the Snow White ride. The ride is now more fittingly called Snow White's Scary Adventures.
Walt Disney, his wife, Lillian, and their daughter, Diane, take a family ride in the famous teacups at Disneyland.
Participants prepared for the Disneyland Grand Opening parade that took place in Tomorrowland.
Parkgoers enjoyed a riverboat ride on the Rivers of America.
This aerial shot shows Disneyland parkgoers waiting for the Mad Tea Party ride in Fantasyland.
