Disney’s Animal Kingdom Review ~ Orlando, Florida

Enjoy Celebrity Radio’s Disney’s Animal Kingdom Review…..

Disney’s Animal Kingdom in Orlando, Florida is a must see when visiting the Sunshine State.

Animal Kingdom is located within the huge Disney resort just 20 minutes from the airport and 15 minutes from most hotels.

It’s open from 9 until 5pm.

Here’s Celebrity Radios’ audio / visual review via YouTube:

Disney’s Animal Kingdom is the fourth of four theme parks built at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida and opened on Earth Day, April 22, 1998.

It is the second largest theme park in world, behind Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey,  and it is the largest single Disney theme park in the world, covering 500 acres.

 

This park is also the first Disney theme park to be themed entirely around animal conservation, a philosophy once pioneered by Walt Disney himself.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, meaning they have met or exceeded the standards in education, conservation, and research.

In 2011, the park hosted approximately 9.8 million guests, ranking it the fourth-most visited amusement park in the United States and seventh-most visited in the world.

Everyday at 3.15pm there is a wonderful Disney parade….

 

Sadly the Lion King attraction is currently closed at Animal Kingdom – disappointing.

The park is represented by The Tree of Life, a sculpted 145-foot-tall.

Animal Kingdom has several sections including Africa (home of the Safari), Asia, DinoLand USA and the soon to be built Avatar.

You cannot fail to be impressed by the gorgeous safari where you will see giraffes, lions, elephants, rhino, buffalo and must more!

Do catch the bird show, the Eagle is spectacular.

There are many cafes and restaurants within the park including the world famous Rainforest Café.

Have fun @ Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
