July, 1935 "Temple of the Forbidden Eye"

[Depicted in Indiana Jones Adventure: Temple of the Forbidden Eye, a theme park attraction in Disneyland in Anaheim, California, opened on March 4th, 1995.]


  • [As told by twelve letters and telegrams scattered around the ride queue] Indiana Jones has recently discovered an ancient temple that was flooded around 65 BC, located in the Lost Delta region of what is now modern day India.

  • The lost temple contains countless artifacts and treasures left behind by Mara, a deity that offers his visitors three gifts: earthly riches, eternal youth, or visions of the future. The only catch, however, is that no one can look into the “eyes of the idol.”

  • Inevitably, plenty of tourists have gone missing during their quest, and Indiana has been requested by family members to find their lost loved ones. 

  • Indiana himself has now gone missing inside the tomb, and Marcus Brody is asking for new voyagers to help find America’s last great action hero. 



  • Legend behind this adventure involves:


  • Mara - a demonic King in Buddhism, associated with death, rebirth, and desire.
