Walt Disney World – The Most Magical Place On Earth
Walt Disney World vacations have the distinction of being one of the most popular family trips in the world. It’s also the largest theme park in the United States, covering over 40 square miles and making it about the size of the city of San Francisco. This should give you some idea of the amount of ground to be covered in such a massive theme park. This place is huge, and is comprised of four major theme parks, an area known as Disney Springs (featuring family attractions, many dining options and lots of shopping), two fun-filled water parks, a couple of top-rated golf courses and much, much more.

Walt Disney World Fun Facts
Fun facts are just that…fun, plain and simple. Trivia, history, facts (both technical and interesting) are covered here. We’ve listed everything we know…but feel free to email us if you find some more. We’d love to hear!
- Disney’s Wedding Pavilion was deliberately situated in a specific way so that while standing at the altar, the bride and groom have a perfect view of Cinderella’s Castle!
- Although you may think that Cinderella’s Castle is made of stone, it’s actually entirely built of fiberglass!
- Spaceship Earth (the iconic centerpiece of Epcot) weighs in at a staggering 16 million pounds. That equals more than 3 times the weight of a space shuttle fully fueled and ready for takeoff!
- The Tree of Life, (the centerpiece of Animal Kingdom) is 14 stories high and 50 feet wide at its trunk.
- More than 1.6 million turkey drumsticks are gobbled (pun intended) every year in the Disney parks.

- The waves in the Surf Pool at Typhoon Lagoon are one of the world’s largest artificially created waves. Every ninety seconds, waves crash to the shore of a pool that’s twice the size of a football field!
- In the 1980’s, Disney executives began incorporating “hidden mickeys” throughout the park. Today, there are over 200 of them! How cool is that!
