Cinderella’s Castle is what catches most people’s eyes as soon as they walk through the gates at Magic Kingdom, and it is also the main symbol that is used and recognized with Disney.

Herbert Ryman designed Cinderella’s Castle. He used inspiration from French castlesand the Cinderella movie itself.

Construction for the Castle began in 1969 and took 18 months to complete. 600 tons of steel wereused to build the castle and the castle is 189 ft. tall. Originally, an apartment

was designed for Disney’s family but was never completed or used. Now a shop selling glass ornaments and a restaurant called Cinderella’s Royal Table are located in the Castle.

Its early in the morning and your excited to explore the Magic Kingdom. Your walking towards Cinderella’s Castle anxious along with hundreds of other people, and suddenly music sounds all around you. Mickey and Minnie Mouse along with all the Disney Princesses and their Princes, take the stage in front of the castle to dance and welcome you to the park. There is no better feeling then the excitement received from the show combined with the anxiousness and beauty from being inside the park.

each scene.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom opened on April 22, 1998 and the park’s parking lot was closed just 20 minutes after opening because the park was at its limit of people.

Looking down on the park or even looking at the map,the park is in a very similar shape to the shape of Africa.

The park is the largest Disney Park in the world, it takes up 580 acres.

Notwo rides are alike and the ride gives you an amazing experienceby letting you be up close and personal with many different kinds

of animals!

with a feeling of excitement. There is

no other experience inthe world like a trip

through any or all of

the Disney parks. It is an experience of a

lifetime and Disney’s motto is 100% right in

saying Disney is “Where Dreams

Come True”!
