Mysterious Island
Tokyo DisneySea

This tunnel represents the handiwork of one of Captain Nemo's advanced drills, part of his quest to reach the center of the earth. It also represents the transition from the Mediterranean harbor (the light at the end of this tunnel) to Mysterious Island, the Jules Verne-themed area of Tokyo DisneySea. This particular tunnel also sets the stage for the Journey to the Center of the Earth attraction, the premier attraction of the park. Disney parks are well know for their design principles and transitions, and DisneySea is no exception. You are subtly transitioned and prepared for each new area of the park, and each has a very unique look and character. Mysterious Island represents the most adventurous area of the park, the typical bouncy theme park music replaced with the sound of howling sea winds and rumbling seismic activity.

As you can see, the rockwork at DisneySea is simply incredible, inside and out. Only the yet to be opened Carsland in California can even be considered in the same league.
