‘Tangled’ fans, however, will get to explore Rapunzel’s tower, set against a tranquil forest. The nearby restaurant is based on the film’s little eatery where our heroine encounters a group of villains. Similar to the ‘Frozen’ attraction, ‘Tangled’ lets you enjoy a scenic gondola ride, where you’ll be surrounded by hundreds of lanterns – it’s easy to imagine yourself as Rapunzel and relive the most magical scene in the movie.
