The
Magic Kingdom Is one of the Most Popular Attraction in Orlando
The Magic Kingdom has become one of the most popular US travel attractions to visit in
Orlando, Florida since it was opened in 1971. In 2011 some 17 million people
visited the Magic Kingdom, making it the most visited theme park in the
world. The 107-acre park features six
distinct lands that visitors can enjoy, including the New Fantasyland, which is
currently enjoying the park’s largest expansion and has opened two new themed
areas: the Storybook Circus and the Enchanted Forest. Here is a short list of
the many attractions that the park offers:
·
Space Mountain.
Found at the entrance to Tomorrowland, the classic ride allows guests to
experience what it’s like to travel through space and time in three-seater
rockets. At the end of your rise, a moving walkway will take you to
Tomorrowland proper, during which you’ll be able to see scenes of futuristic
homes along the way.
·
Splash Mountain.
This ride will take you through the bowels of Chickapin Hill, plunging into
dark caves and tumbling over waterfalls, and culminating in a five story
plummet that ends with a splash in a refreshing pond.
·
Wild Africa Trek.
This attraction lets you experience a safari deep into the Pangani Forest and
enjoy close encounters with Nile Crocodiles and Hippos by being suspended from
a harness on a overhead track laid over their riverbed lair.
