Attractions
ADVENTURELAND - For those of us who dream of the mystery, intrigue
and romance of a life far from civilization, Adventureland is the perfect
playground-whether you're cruising through the African jungles, avoiding
poison darts and snakes while searching for ancient artifacts, or simply
sampling the tropical faire in the village shops.
CRITTER COUNTRY - Brer Rabbit and his Song of the South pals
call Critter Country home-but you're welcome, too. Come on in, enjoy the
calming sounds of nature; sip a tasty beverage along the peaceful
riverbanks; and experience a downright spectacular mountain ride that
gives a whole new meaning to the word "wildlife"!
FANTASYLAND - Through the entrance to Sleeping Beauty Castle await
the fairy-tale worlds of Snow White, Cinderella, Peter Pan, Dumbo, Mr.
Toad, Alice and Pinocchio. Dedicated to the young at heart, Fantasyland
brings to life a wonderful, magical world of make-believe; an enchanted
land where dreams really do come true.
FRONTIERLAND - Frontierland is a place that pulses with the energy
of ideals and dreams of our forefathers. From the bustle of early
transportation on the Rivers of America to the western-themed shows, shops
and eateries, Frontierland celebrates the spirit and strength of the
American pioneer
MAIN STREET, U.S.A. - Walt Disney once said, "I love the nostalgic
myself. I hope we never lose some of the things of the past." So he
created Main Street, U.S.A. to make sure we could always embrace those
wonderful feelings of days gone by. From the decor in the old-time
specialty shops to the music in Central Plaza to the taste of the ice
cream sundaes, Main Street is pure Americana.
NEW ORLEANS SQUARE - Even the ghosts at the Haunted Mansion will
tell you this is one lively place. The hottest jazz sounds, the best in
Southern cuisine, Mardi Gras souvenirs waiting to be unmasked, and
attractions with timeless appeal.
TOMORROWLAND - "A World on the Move," Tomorrowland is an
ever-changing expanse of technology and invention. From the pulse-pounding
state-of-the-art attractions like Star Tours and Space Mountain, to the
revolving education center called Innoventions, Tomorrowland is truly a
tribute to the power of the human mind.
MICKEY'S TOONTOWN - You're always welcome in this fanciful
community where Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, Roger Rabbit and the rest
of the gang live, work and play. It's about the wackiest, looniest place
you'll ever see; then again, what would you expect from Toons?!
