Geeky·Posted on Jul 14, 202017 Surreal Pictures From The "Phase Reopening" Of Disney ParksThis is the reality.by Syd RobinsonBuzzFeed StaffLinkFacebookPinterestTwitterMail As you've probably heard, Disney parks all over the world have started "phased reopening" despite apprehension from many public health experts over COVID-19. Disney World in Florida officially reopened its Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom parks on Saturday, but with new precautions in place. For example, face coverings are now mandatory. And temperature screenings before entering is a new thing. (Like so.) Signs promoting social distancing have also been posted around all the theme parks. All employees have to wear masks, and sometimes even face shields. Like...this is wild. But despite everything, some people have not been dissuaded. They're just hanging out and going on socially distanced rides, which is a weird new reality. As for Disneyland in Anaheim, California, it's keeping its theme parks closed. But its shopping and dining area, Downtown Disney District? Not so much. And people are also showing up to that. Other Disney destinations are also reopening: Shanghai Disney Resort is currently taking advanced reservations, Disneyland Paris is also reopening in phases, and Tokyo Disney Resort has been reopened since July 1. Disneyland Hong Kong reopened on June 18, but because of an increase in infections, it's set to close again on July 15. Which, coincidentally, is the same day Disney World also plans to reopen its theme parks Epcot and Hollywood Studios. So...this is pretty much what Disney looks like now. Now you know.
