DID YOU KNOW ??????????????????

Walt Disney's Magic Kingdom opened October 1, 1971. It is 107 acres of land and has 32 attractions. It also was the second Disney Park to open in the world. The main feature is Cinderella's castle.

Walt Disney's Epcot is divided into two main sections. First they have Future World and then behind that is the World Showcase. Epcot opened exactly eleven years to the date, October 1,1982, after the Magic Kingdom. It is three times larger than the Magic Kingdom at 300 acres. Epcot has 18 attractions and is the host to the Millenium Celebration.

At MGM-Studios you can learn how they make movies and TV shows.MGM first opened May 1, 1989 and currently has twelve attractions. The park is 154 acres and has excellent shows. Check out the new Doug Live Show.

Last but not least Disney's Animal Kingdom. Disney's largest park so far and still building. I do not have the information on how large the park is. The grand Tree-of-Life stands 145 feet tall and has 325 endangered or extinct animals carved in the trunk. What a beautiful sight.(Take a look at it on my sights page) The Animal Kingdom opened April 22, 1998 and has many attractions. It is hard to keep track because new ones keep opening up. I hear thru the grapevine that there may be a new land being developed for you dragon lovers.
