Walt Disney World Evaluation
Since the grand opening in 1971, Walt Disney World has continuously brought dreams to life. Walter Elias Disney and his brother Roy Oliver Disney cofounded Walt Disney World in hopes of encouraging imagination among all attendees. The park continues to grow and excite visitors from all over the world. Many people deem Walt Disney World as one of the best theme parks to exist. To make this evaluation one must consider the qualities successful theme parks possess. These include entertainment for all age groups, flexible options for health needs, advanced technology, and alluring themes. While Walt Disney World may be busy, it exhibits all the necessities of an excellent theme park. In order to ensure the enjoyment of all guests, theme parks must establish entertainment and activities for people of all ages. When Walt Disney World was created, the co-founders intended to bring magic to all age groups. To ensure this, they created a plethora of attractions to entertain all types of people. For children, the park has low thrill rides that include Toy Story Mania, an interactive ride featuring the characters Buzz Lightyear and Woody, and Tomorrowland Speedway, a ride for children to drive miniature race cars (McNesby, 2017). Children may also enjoy character greetings and autograph signings from characters like Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Goofy, and Cinderella. These characters can be found wandering the park or reservations may be made to dine with
No matter how old you are, when you go to Disney the inner child in you comes out. From the moment you walk into Disney until the moment you walk out you feel welcomed and special. There is one word that describes the Disney experience and that is that it is “magical”. Lee Cockerell writes of this “magic” from firsthand experience, as he was the Executive Vice President of Operations of Walt Disney World Resort for over ten years.
It’s no doubt that creating a family oriented theme park based on popular, beloved cartoon characters and imagination was a good idea. From Cinderella’s castle to the famous Main Street, U.S.A, there’s something extraordinary lying around every corner. Walt Disney World, other wise known as “the happiest place on earth”, or the place “where dreams come true”, was founded by a man with a dream of creating a place where children and parents could spend time together while making amazing memories. However, this extravagant amusement park is only one of the major accomplishments of Walt Disney.

Relevance: Walt Disney created Disneyland and Disneyworld because he believed that people who rushed to grow up were selling themselves short. He invented the theme parks in order to bring out the inner child in you, no matter your age.
“Walt wanted to create an amusement park in which his cartoon characters could come to life and interact with the visitors.” A place where both parent and child could have fun. So in 1955 Walt purchased 160 acres of land in California and began the $17-million-dollar project to construct Disneyland. His vision of how he wanted to construct Disneyland was unpretentious. He wanted the entrance to embody a euphoric restoration of the conventional American main street. The goal was that people would walk down “Main Street, USA” and want to discover more by going to the other 4 different “dream lands,” he had creted: Fantasyland, Adventureland, Frontierland, and Tomorrowland. Fantasyland was created to be more child orientated, where all of Disney’s

Math happens behind closed doors at Walt Disney world or should I say that math happens inside of a secret tunnel somewhere in Walt Disney world but we will not get in to that just yet. Where does the real magic happen, people might ask? To begin with some people might say the magic starts with the Disney characters, the rides or others might even say it is the parades that Disney world have at the end of the day from the fireworks, to the yummy cotton candy and the treats that they bring out for people to enjoy along with the characters coming out all at once to entertain everyone. There are so many wow factors during the parades at Walt Disney world. Nevertheless Neither one of
Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando provide entertainment for visitors of all ages. However, it is no surprise that the intended audience for Walt Disney World is targeted towards young children. On the other hand, Universal Orlando provides entertainment for an older audience. Walt Disney World has slower attractions which are suitable for the whole family and revolve around the many different Disney movies and characters. Universal Orlando is known for its thrill rides which are loved by adrenaline seekers. Walt Disney World has very few thrill rides to choose from and not many of them are large scale roller coasters. Universal has basically an entire theme park dedicated to large scale roller coasters providing twists and turns at a high velocity for its guests. Walt Disney World keeps the fantasy going for the young children by providing meet and greets with characters from the various Disney movies. They also offer various different
The Walt Disney Company started off on the dreams of one man, Walt Disney. He started the Walt Disney Studios in 1926 to make animated films for children but was not satisfied with his accomplishments. As his motion pictures and television programs became successful, he felt a desire to branch out. One area that intrigued him was amusement parks. As a father, he had taken his children to carnivals and other entertainment enterprises, but he always ended up sitting out the rides while the kids had all the
Along with his serious Down to earth side Disney also lived part of his life in the realms of fantasy and imagination. His great love of fantasy and the great lack of family entertainment in America inspired Walt to build a theme park of his own. All of America thought that this time Disney had really gone crazy. As Disney once said about the reactions to his ideas for a park "Almost everyone warned us that Disneyland would be a Hollywood spectacular - a spectacular failure. But they were thinking about an amusement park, and we believe in our idea - a family park where parents and children could have
Have you ever been to Disney World? I’m pretty sure everyone has at least heard about it. In my opinion it is the best amusement park out there. Anyone can go. From the tiniest member in your family to the oldest one. There is a variation of rides made for everyone that desires to go. Making it one of the best vacation destination. Sure the park is wonderful, but the rides are amazing. There are slow rides, very fast rides, and educative rides.
And now, nearly four decades after his death, the maker of said creations, Walt Disney, is not nearly as recognized as he should be. Not only are his works and other projects intriguing, his morals and techniques personally behind them are as well. And yet they weren’t just his morals, they were shared by the country’s people who so desired an example of good principles. Perhaps the most significant scheme of all was his creation of his very own amusement park in 1955, Disneyland, located in Anaheim, California.
