Ever since I was a child I was madly in love with Fantasyland because it is a child's dream come true. It has the most of the classic Disney rides here as well as shops and eateries.
Most people like to enter through Sleeping Beauty castle so you can get a good look at the things surrounding you. Directly in front of you is King Arthur carousel with the tradional "sword in the stone." A great photo op if you want to try to "pull" it out. That area is surrounded by Peter Pan's flight, Snow White's enchanted wish, Bippity boppity boutique, and Pinocchio's daring journey.
Moving on you will encounter Casey Jr Circus train, Mr Toad's wild ride, the mad tea party, Alice in Wonderland, and Storybook land canal boats. Two of the more popular attractions are "It's a small world" and the Matterhorn. Dining is limited here. I did stop in Red Rose tavern but saw nothing that interested me. Another popular spot is the Troubadour Tavern for snacks.
Since this part of the park is very family oriented with small kids it does get crowded very quickly. It is best to visit either first thing in the morning or during a parade when kids are enjoying that. Wait times seem to be shorter then.
Expect frequent closures of popular attractions here as they are always upgrading or performing maintenance here. Nevertheless, no trip to Disneyland would be complete without a visit to Fantasyland.
