Cinderella's Castle is the focal point of the Magic Kingdom. Walt Disney was inspired by several French castles as well as Neuschwanstein Castle. The castle is quite nice to look at and inspires all sorts of reactions from kids and adults alike.
Inside the Castle is Cinderella's Royal Table; a nice table service restaurant, the Cinderlla Suite at the top of the castle (if you can afford it), a gift shop and some very pretty Mosaics depicting the Cinderella story.
Th castle is the focal point for the night time fireworks show when the castle comes alive with beautiful lighting. Leave a Comment Directions: Walt Disney World, Orlando, Florida

 Halloween at the Magic Kingdom by starship
The party starts around 7:30 p.m. after the park closes for the regular day and children wear their Halloween costumes to the park and an awful lot of their Moms and Dads do too! It's a great night for those who really like Halloween. Most all of the rides remain open, but alot of people flock to the Haunted Mansion ride which seems to be fitting, don't you think!?! This year a "friendly" which sat on the front lawn scaring unsuspecting visitors to her mansion.
I would say this party appeals mostly to the younger children, but it's fun to try it once! This party requires a special admission ticket for adults and children and is not covered by your regular daily admission ticket. Expect to pay about $43 per adult and $37 for children 3-9 yrs old for tickets which you must purchase in advance to this evening party.

The Magic Kingdom park is itself made up of many unique areas, including Main Street, Frontierland, Tomorrowland, Adventureland, etc., surrounding the centerpiece of Cinderella's castle. Each area features its own unique architectural theme, landscape, music, costumes, shops, restaurants and of course, rides. If you return to Disney World enough times, I am sure you will certainly find at least one area that captures your heart and becomes your favorite!!
In the following tips I hope to show you some special places in the Magic Kingdom.
Take a relaxing ride on the paddlewheeler seen in the accompanying picture and you will see the world as it might have been during the time of Mark Twain.

 We start our adventure! by VeronicaG
The Epcot countries are wonderful--they showcase each country--some offering dining opportunities and most providing souvenirs or handicrafts to take home with you. There are fireworks displays at certain times here near closing time. Be sure to stay to watch them because they are spectacular, but remember other people will be staying to watch, too. There will be a crowd, but Disney is supreme in people moving. Phone: 1-800-W Disney or 407-824-2222Directions: Walt Disney World, Orlando, FloridaWebsite: www.waltdisneyworld.com

 The Magic Kingdom,
Christmas before
Thanksgiving? by Dabs,
4 more photos
I always have to go on the Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean (updated to include a few Captain Jack Sparrow figures and at least one Captain Barbossa from the movie) and Space Mountain usually more than once. And although some people might find the Mad Hatter's Tea Party a little lame, you wouldn't say that if you had me and Kat spinning the cups ;-) We also had fun on Aladdin's Magic Carpet ride, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and the WDW railroad was a nice relaxing ride. And somehow we never did go on It's a Small World, one of the classic Disney rides.
Not worth the wait: Stitch's Great Escape (boring, at least for adults), Jungle Cruise (line way too long without a FastPass, ride pretty boring)
Tickets have climbed a bit since my last visit, it's now $67+ tax for adults, $56 + tax for kids 3-9, under 3 free. The price per day decreases if you buy a multiday ticket. The Magic Kingdom stays open the latest of the four parks at DisneyWorld with even later hours on the weekends. So if you get a late start or you have enough stamina to go all day, schedule the Magic Kingdom for Friday or Saturday.
If you are going with young kids, I'd highly recommend reading up on the rides before you go so you know which ones your kids will and won't go on. When I took my nieces I was unpleasantly surprised when the older one balked at anything that was in the dark, although I did eventually get her on the Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean she wouldn't budge on Space Mountain.

 Down town by gcmm
There are so many things about MGM that i like...
1. The Drew Carry Sound Stage
2. Indiana Jones Stunt Show
3. Tour around the studio
4. Tower of terror
5. The rockin Roller Coaster
6. and much more
Taking the trolly tour around was also neat. We went down one of streets which had several homes that you see in the movies and some sit-coms..
we were able to view some shows being taped and the sets they are done on..Amazing to think that when you watch a show many of the parts are done on a sound stage in doors, for ex.. Zena warrior princess
There are many things to do at this park. I think the rocking roller coaster featuring aerosmith is fantastic...It is a quick ride but well i won't tell ,you'll have to find out.. Leave a Comment Directions: Walt Disney World, Orlando, Florida
