First Look at Rapunzel’s Tower on Storybook Land Canal Boats in Disneyland

First Look at Rapunzel’s Tower on Storybook Land Canal Boats in Disneyland

The construction walls around Storybook Land Canal Boats in Disneyland are finally down, and we got our first look at Rapunzel’s Tower!

Storybook Land Canal Boats Refurbishment

A flower bed spells "STORYBOOK LAND" by Monstro the whale’s mouth, next to a pond and trees, reminiscent of Disneyland’s classic ride.

On July 30, Storybook Land Canal Boats closed for refurbishment, with scaffolding going up immediately and construction walls shortly afterward dominating the Fantasyland landscape.

Although the attraction won’t reopen until this winter, the construction walls are finally down, revealing a freshly repainted Monstro, a rare view into a dry Ariel’s Grotto, and our first look at Rapunzel’s Tower.

Monstro the whale is absolutely gleaming with an allover refreshed paint job. While his eyes were closed, we got a good look into his cavernous mouth!

We also got a unique view into Ariel’s Grotto without the waterfall running, showing the vibrant undersea “plants.”

But most exciting is our first glimpse of Rapunzel’s Tower peeking over the greenery.

Colorful flowerbeds and shrubs with Storybook Land Canal Boats peeking out—no castle here, but a classic Disneyland garden view.

On the concept art, the tower is shown between the Patchwork Quilt and Toad Hall. Other Tangled-inspired theming is also being added to the ride, including arrangements of When Will My Life Begin? and I See the Light.

Guests glide by Rapunzel’s tower on Storybook Land Canal Boats at Disneyland, with no grand castle like Disney World’s but fairytale charm.
