You Have to See These 7 Hidden Characters on the Disneyland Map

Disneyland is known for its fun references across its theme parks, with some in plain sight and others more subtle. You might have never noticed some of these references, like popular characters hidden on the Disneyland map across certain areas of the park and near attractions.

From searching for Hidden Mickeys to spotting some of the park's overlooked details, there is always so much to explore at Disneyland that might not be immediately obvious.

Today we have some fun hidden characters on the Disneyland app map that we need to share with you. We'll share all of these characters and then share a video showing all of the hidden characters on the map at the bottom of this post.
