WDW Guide - Animal Kingdom Attraction Guide
As the sun set on this last Century and the dawn of the new Millennium began to rise across America, a new icon rose majestically against the Central Florida horizon: a massive tree, reaching nearly 150 feet into the sky, with hulking branches sporting thousands of bright green leaves. The Tree of Life stands as the glorious centerpiece for Disney's Animal Kingdom, Walt Disney World's newest theme park, which opened in April of 1998. A complete working zoological conservation park, Animal Kingdom is awe-striking and utterly stunning in both size and detail. Intricate rockwork and thundering waterfalls compliment the rugged savannah and ancient Asian ruins that make up the many habitats for Animal Kingdom's various creatures of all shapes and sizes. This park combines the beauty of nature and the magic of Walt Disney Imagineering to create a blend of natural wonder and man-made adventure. While zoological parks are not a new concept, Disney's Animal Kingdom breaks the mold in all areas, from presentation to behind-the-scenes research and conservation efforts. Walt Disney may not have ever envisioned this unique addition to his Florida property. It's safe to say however, that Animal Kingdom embodies everything that Walt Disney believed in: Innovation, experimentation, diversification and incredible pioneering spirit. Animal Kingdom is most certainly Disney's greatest True Life Adventure.
The Animal Kingdom attraction guide lists and describes every attraction in the park. Every eating and shopping location is also listed. All attractions are rated on a scale from 1 to 4, 4 being best. Attractions are rated relative to one another, so even a low rated Animal Kingdom attraction might be better than many attractions outside of Disney. Ratings are very subjective so please do not use them as your only criteria when planning your visit.
Animal Kingdom is divided into six areas:
Animal Kingdom also has a parade.
