One of Disneyland's classic thrill rides closed for refurbishment a couple of weeks before the start of the Disneyland 70th anniversary celebration, and work has been taking place on the attraction since that time.

Disneyland has bid a temporary goodbye to its iconic Main Street Cinema as work continues on the installation of a new tribute to the Sherman Brothers. The legendary songwriting duo played a crucial role in developing music for The Walt Disney Company, ranging from original film score to theme park tracks.

In the midst of the park’s 70th anniversary celebration, one of its most famous rides, the Haunted Mansion, is temporarily closing for two weeks. During this brief closure, guests won’t be able to experience the eerie charm of the iconic ride located in New Orleans Square.

Disneyland, however, will be closed on its 65th anniversary. The last time I was at Disneyland was March 6 . That was three days after my previous visit on March 3.

Disneyland is celebrating 70 years as "The Happiest Place on Earth" with a new show featuring a lifelike animatronic of founder Walt Disney.
