www.dWalt Disney World is the biggest of them all. The world's largest theme park complex the total area of which is comparable to the City of Orlando itself. Disney World boasts four theme parks, Magic Kingdom, Epcot Center, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom. It also has two water parks, Blizzard beach and Typhoon Lagoon. Disney World has various world class hotels on the property, restaurants, gift shops, and a full service pet kennel. Disney World is aptly named as it is a city unto itself.
We last went to the Magic Kingdom which was the original mega park in Central Florida. When you park you'll be transported to the ticket booth area by tram car. Make sure you remember where you are parked. If you have tickets already in hand (which I always recommend) you'll be escorted across the Seven Seas Lagoon by way of ferry boat or monorail. Once you arrive at the Magic Kingdom you'll walk through the train station and onto Main Street USA. It's a photo shoot of a lifetime as you look up the street to Cinderella's Castle which towers several hundred feet into the sky.
Disney World is so large it's divided into themed areas. It has Fantasyland, Tomorrowland, Frontierland, Adventureland, and Liberty Square in addition to the Main Street USA Area which is full of shops, food concessions, and shows. There is also a play area called Disney Toon Vliiage which they are apparently doing away with to expand Fantasyland.
Park hours are currently 9:00am - 9:00pm with early hours fom 8:00am - 9:00am for special pass holders and hotel guests. Daily tickets are $71.10 (ages 3-9) and $76.50 (10+) but if you purchase multi-day passes it's a better deal. They also have Florida resident prices and if you plan to go there multiple times during the year they have seasonal and annual passes. FASTPASS helps cut down on the long lines. You can purchase it for additional charges or you get the the FASTPASS privilege with your on-site hotel keys.
I'll be doing a lot of postings about the Disney World experience so look for more. There's just too much to write about in one article without putting you to sleep. So look for more and thanks for reading!
