The famous attraction is described as a “fast-paced thrill ride” where riders search for the famous archeologist in a cursed temple. It first opened at Disneyland in 1995.
“Follow Indy’s footsteps into the crumbling Temple of the Forbidden Eye past intricate booby traps,” the ride’s description reads. “Inspect carvings and frescos that tell the story of Mara, a powerful deity who promises great treasures—and vengeance to those foolish enough to gaze into its all-seeing eyes.”
Disneyland Fans Excited About ‘Indiana Jones’ Ride Refurbishments
Upon noticing that Indiana Jones Adventure: Temple of the Forbidden Eye may be potentially closing, fans took to Reddit to share their thoughts about the refurbishment plans.
“I’d love to see them restore the interactive queue elements,” one fan wrote. “I doubt they’ll be able to fix the chamber of destiny rotation, but that would be cool. My family went in ’95 and those were epic.”
Another fan then stated, “Hopefully, they are gonna fix all the effects that have been broken forever. Not holding my breath but they have been pretty aggressive about fixing stuff ahead of the anniversary celebration.”
Other fans were noticeably sad about the ride potentially being closed during their upcoming Disneyland trip. “I’m so sad about this. Going Mar. 28-30 with some friends that have never been to DL before, and it’s my favourite ride.”
