'''Disney Castle''' is a [[World]] from ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.  It is surrounded by [[Disney Town]], and contains a portal to its past form, [[Timeless River]]. It is the home of [[Mickey Mouse|King Mickey]], [[Queen Minnie]], [[Daisy Duck|Daisy]], [[Donald Duck|Donald]], [[Goofy]], and the other classic animated characters created by Walt Disney. As such, Disney Castle is considered to represent Disney's short films and cartoons, although that role would later be shared with [[Timeless River]]. Disney Castle's design is derived from the real-world [[wikipedia:Magic Kingdom|Magic Kingdom]], which is in turn based upon "[[Castle of Dreams|Cinderella Castle]]".
