Magic
Kingdom is the original Disney Park in Florida, having been dedicated
on the 25th of October 1971, and it is divided into six worlds,
arranged like a wheel, with the magnificent Cinderella's Castle as the
centerpiece at the hub of the wheel. For most people it's also
probably the most magical and memorable of the three parks, so it's
well worth budgeting to spend at least one full day in the Magic
Kingdom if you want to see it all.
Most of the famous Disney characters including Mickey, Donald, Pluto,
Goofy and everyone else can be found scattered at various places
throughout the Magic Kingdom, posing for family photographs and
autographs.
After passing through the main entry gates, you enter The Magic
Kingdom along Main Street USA, passing the City Hall, and the Main
Street Town Square, a small American town centre from the year 1900.
During December the Town Square holds a massive Christmas tree,
adorned with lights and presents.
Main Street itself is a collection of small shops, cinemas, and
attractions from bygone days. You can either walk down Main Street, or
catch one of the transportation vehicles, a horse-drawn carriage,
omnibus, or fire engine, for your trip along Main Street and on
towards Cinderella's Castle, towering over 160 feet above The Magic
Kingdom.
Adventureland holds the Swiss Family Treehouse, The Jungle Cruise, The
Pirates of the Caribbean, and the Enchanted Tiki Birds.
Frontierland, themed like the old west of the 19th century, is home to
the Country Bear Jamboree, along with Splash Mountain and the Big
Thunder Mountain Railroad. Frontierland is also the starting point for
exploration of the Tom Sawyer Island, reachable by raft.
Liberty Square, themed in the colonial era, houses the Hall of
Presidents, The Diamond Horseshoe Revue, The Haunted Mansion, and the
landing stage for the elegant paddle steamer which plies the waters
around Tom Sawyers Island.
