"Old-timey and candy-striped... Two bucks gets you a rickety ride on this historic carousel. Walt Disney used to bring his kids here before Disneyland was even a twinkle in his eye." -5 Every Day Read more

True. It's fast and the calliope music is too insane for some but after the tame zoo carousel with the 80s music on repeat, it's super fun! My DD was too young the first time but she loves it now!

This park is a great family putting or personal inner city getaway for one... the carousel music just adds to the atmosphere
