    WOW! I can't believe I got to be inside this massively iconic figure at Magic Kingdom. We made reservations for Cinderella's Royal Table, which get you into the castle. It's everything I really imagined, while I was there for both of my daughters, I actually was fan girling myself! It has a ton of real castle details, from the walls, to the steps to the tourets. We were able to take pictures with Cinderella in the waiting area. It was also pouring down rain, but we were able to get in and wait for our reservation. Everyone is incredibly kind and helpful. The castle is a must see, if you can get in I highly recommend.

    Very excited to see Daisy.

    It's so exciting to see and co Practically it's not even close to the most exciting thing to see at Disney. I am Disney spoiled so my friends and family get more excited than I do when they see the castle because they haven't seen it as much as I have and I guess I take it for granted. I do enjoy being able to walk through Sleeping Beauty castle in Disneyland but here you get a restaurant so I guess it's all fair. I did get super excited to see the show from the side view where there's usually less of a crowd.

    Cinderella Castle is one of my favorite attractions at Disneyland and Disney World. Cinderella Castle at Disney World is located in the Magic Kingdom. It was inspired by the castle in Cinderella! As you walk through the castle, you'll see handcrafted glass mosaics that tell the classic story of Cinderella. You can also book through the Disney World application a restaurant reservation at Cinderella's Royal Table. It's a pre-fix menu and a character dining experience! You'll need to book in advance for the dinner reservation, though! The Cinderella castle is a 189-food feature in Magic Kingdom! It's surrounded by a moat with lawns and gardens! There is a similar layout in Disneyland in California and Disneyland Paris. There's a show that plays in front of Cinderella's Castle, Mickey's Magical Friendship Faire. You can view showtimes on the Disney World mobile application! I was also here for the Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween during 2023. They had the Sanderson sisters with a lot of the Disney villain characters pre-show prior to the parade! During the fireworks, there was also a show of Jack Skeleton, too, in front of Cinderella's Castle!

    A great day was had by our small group at Disney World today. Some food was good, some blah and some was no thanks.

    A classic landmark of Disneyworld, I absolutely love being able to walk through Magic Kingdom and catch glimpses of it throughout the park. I was a little disappointed that it wasn't that traditional white/gray color I remembered from when I was a child, but rather the light pink color to celebrate the 50th anniversary, but it was still a beautiful sight to behold no matter what! I would highly recommend walking *through* the castle. There's a path up to the castle and an archway/tunnel underneath that you can walk through as almost a shortcut to Fantasyland area / Prince Charming's carousel. So it both saves you time from walking around it and also has some pretty special mosaics within the tunnel that you can appreciate - absolutely stunning!

    Cinderella castle is the iconic logo and backdrop for Disney world's magic kingdom. Forever the most popular photo op at the Disney parks. You are greeted by the massive castle while making your entrance down Main Street. The castle is the center point for the whole park and can be views while walking around or under it. They do host some Restaurants and Character greets inside the castle for reservations and high prices. Then nightly show at closing is always performed right in front of the castle as well. Overall a classic staple of Disney world parks and a perfect photo op for people visiting.

    The Castle is what you see looking up Main Street when you enter the park, and it's an iconic piece. If you want to walk through it, do it FIRST when you get there in the AM, otherwise, you may not get the opportunity to do so as it becomes a place where they stage shows throughout the day. There are some cool tile murals inside the main corridor. It also has a not-so-secret hotel room which I'm not quite sure how you're able to stay here and if you'd even want to (unless the Minnie-fridge is hooked up). For most people, this attraction is a backdrop for amaze-balls photos and a landmark for Main Street so at the end of the day, you can walk another mile or two to your vehicle or shuttle bus.

    Cinderella Castle is the iconic hub of the Magic Kingdom. It is the location for more photographs than any other place in the park. The castle lights up at night for the evening fireworks display. It is currently decorated for Disney's 50th anniversary celebration. The castle itself is currently not accessible from the front but you can enter from the back. Inside you will see murals relating to the Cinderella story. It is also home to Cinderella's royal table restaurant which is much in demand for families with small children. Try taking photos off to the side of the castle for more interesting views. Photopass photographers are there as well and they can combine "magic shots" to make your pictures more interesting. They have another "frill" now where for $10.00 you can superimpose your picture anywhere on the castle. Every night Tinkerbell flies from the castle signifying the start of the evening fireworks. The castle is a place "where dreams come true"

    The aesthetic and experience made it worth it but overall, pretty pricey. The steak was delicious. The fish was horrible and tough and not tasty. The chicken with pesto pasta was yummy but a bit salty. The desserts were nice. Not a fan of cheesecake and this place didn't change my mind about that. The lemon sorbet was super sour! Some people who like that flavor might like it. The chocolate everything was done well. We also got the Mickey Mouse birthday cake for $40 and it was tasty but so big and we barely ate it haha

    Cinderella's Castle is the spot when you think of Walt Disney World. Have you even been to Disney if you don't have a photo in front of the castle???? It's beautiful to walk through and is the location for shows throughout the day including the nighttime fireworks. Tinker bell flies in before they begin. If you're looking to watch the fireworks in front of the castle make sure you're there early to grab a spot because it gets packed. Off to the right side is Cinderella's wishing well which is also a great place for photos with the castle in the background. There are also a couple benches so you can sit for a minute of quiet.

    BOOK the "capture your moment" at Cinderella's Castle we recommend our photopass photogragher: Brittany it's a 20 minute photo session with Disney's photopass cast member I showed Brittany what we were kind of wanting with some Pinterest photos. We wanted photos by the wishing well and overall the side of the castle. We didn't want people in our photos so Brittany recommend the side of the castle instead of right in front because there were going to be a lot of guest in the background. We booked a 20 min session I wasn't sure if it was going to be enough time between two couples. I wanted some cute pictures for some save the dates and my cousin wanted Engagement photos. Brittany did an amazing job and I couldn't ask for better photos. She knew what she was doing and I love that Disney offer this to guest. It very worth it if you want some photos done. Honestly we had some poses in our mind but once we blanked Brittany helped us with some poses for our photos. She was very good and quick with our photos. Our pictures came out amazing and I highly recommend doing this if you're in Walt Disney World.

    Gorgeous show
    Paulet D.

    I've gone many times to Magic Kingdom and I've never been inside the castle or actually seen the night show with fireworks. We decided to stay and watch the show and OMG was it totally worth it. To be honest that must have been my favorite part of our entire Disney Trip. The way the park gets completely and utterly dark while the animation of ALL or at least most of the Disney Characters appears and tell a story all in the matter of 15 minutes with fireworks to match each story is truly magical. You don't have to be a child to enjoy this, everyone will. Next time you're at Magic Kingdom take the time to just enjoy the castle and if you stay until 9:15 enjoy the show. Worth staying for and watching.

    I mean, it's disney and the iconic castle. You have to see it when at the magic kingdom. Stick around for the firework show, it is incredible

    Disclaimer: I'm not one of those Disney Adults, so I can't blindly just rate this place 5 stars…read morebecause Disney is the God I choose to worship. But as a random person, we didn't really have a bad experience. Magic Kingdom is not an amusement park, it's a theme park. Rides are basic, but I think it's so every guest can have the same experience. Easy to stop and go if you need to get on the ride in an untraditional way. Completely overpriced though, which is why my wife and I have been together for 22 years and this was the first time we went to Disney in that time. If we didn't spend more on lightning lane passes, we would not have had a good day. I feel you can do whatever you want here. People cut in line, push past others, talk through all the instructions and rides. Some weird woman just recited the entire Haunted Mansion introduction, because with main character syndrome, she wanted to ruin the experience for everyone else? I feel I enjoy Marvel and Star Wars more than most other properties and I still think Disney has catching up to do with Universal Studios. It's a better world over there. There is a lot of Disney "Magic" though. You have to pay for it, but like Disney, you throw enough money at a problem and it does appear better.

    Under the Sea ~ Journey of the Little Mermaid is OK. Ariel looks weird, mainly in the face…read more While I still enjoyed this ride and thought it was fun, the overall quality of the animatronics was a step below most other rides at Disney World. I thought maybe that was because this ride opened around the same time as the movie in 1989. However, I was a bit surprised to learn after the fact that this ride actually opened 23 years after the movie, in late 2012. On the ride, you board clamshells that take you on an adventure under the sea. Pretty much all the characters from the movie make an appearance and the ride is filled with Alan Menken and Howard Ashman's popular songs like "Part of Your World," "Under the Sea," "Poor Unfortunate Souls," and "Kiss the Girl." The "Under the Sea" song and dance segment is bright and colorful. It reminds me of going to E.T.'s planet in the E.T. Adventure ride at Universal Studios. It's a festive party; both rides have that neon-colored, crowded "creature party" aesthetic. During our visit, the animatronic Ariel in this section was broken and inanimate. Kind of funny and creepy. During the "Kiss the Girl" segment, the plastic water coming out of the fishes' mouths didn't look great. It added to the overall sort of "knock-off" and kitschy look of the ride. Also, right before the end of the final scene with King Triton and the wedding of Ariel and Eric, the ride stopped on us. So, I was able to get a good, long look at the different animatronics and scenery. Finally, I thought the transitions between the high-quality video and the actual practical physical ride props were a bit jarring. Other rides do it better like, for example, the Gran Fiesta Tour Starring the Three Caballeros at EPCOT. We had Lightning Lane passes at around 1:47 PM on a non-holiday Monday and experienced no line and no wait.

It is a slow moving ride that goes on a flat track and will move your clamshell 365 degrees, as well as going backwards and tipping backwards as well. It does not spin fast and as someone who gets motion sickness, you should be fine. The seat has a lap bar for the entire row and is not comfortable at all. It is a very hard bench. I find this ride becoming more of a favorite probably since it is super cute and the line is never very long. The line can get long at times, but I recommend waiting until the wait drops below 20 minutes. The line starts outside which has little shade and is very hot in the summer, but then moves inside, where the majority of the line is. Inside it is covered and much cooler. It is actually really dark inside and my eyes always have to adjust. This ride is very colorful, very musical and very fun. If you know this movie, you are going through the story quickly. There are a few dark areas throughout the ride as well as a couple of loud parts. This rides also "stops" as well. There is not a time we have been on this that it did not have a stop for a a minute or so. This ride is designed for children, however, as an adult, it is becoming a favorite of mine. It is nice long ride, that you can sit and relax. This is a must go in the summer for us! Cool, AC, sitting down, sign me up! I would recommend this ride but only when the line is 20 minutes or less. Otherwise, wait and come back later.

Rapunzel's tower from Tangled is very cool to see from an up close perspective! It felt like you were in the movie! The tower is not accessible for entry, however, the outside of the tower has been detailed extremely well. The tower appears as though it could have easily come right out of the film. At daylight hours, the tower is quite nice. However, when evening arrives with lights like the lanterns from the movie, the entire atmosphere changes and becomes much more immersive! Although this area contains themed restrooms, there is no indication that they are bathrooms! This is not your average restroom stop in Magic Kingdom though! There are details throughout the area including Pascal hiding within some of the design elements, wanted posters of Flynn Rider and many other small details to give off the idea that this is essentially a mini Tangled town. I was happy about this being a slightly less crowded area of Fantasyland as well. It is nice to be able to step back and stop for a moment to capture some photos and take a quick rest from the crowds. Unlike many of the rides surrounding this area, there isn't always a huge crowd of people here! It is definitely worth stopping by especially at night. There are so much details to Rapunzel's tower!

Many many years ago there was a sky way gondola ride that went from Tomorrowland to Fantasyland...basically from Carousel of Progress to It's a Small World. The area that is now the village & tower (AKA Bathrooms) are now located where the abandoned Fantasyland station closed and was disguised by trees for at least 15 years. Now, to save the day and turn this area that became a stroller parking lot, no seriously...it was a parking lot of strollers w/ an attendant, I kid you not. This area became very narrow and there are nowhere near enough bathrooms at WDW in general, but that's a whole other topic. Point being is that they knocked down that old building and cleared way for increased traffic flow, added toilet facilities AND add additional theming to Fantasyland expansion. Originally it's said that the tower was going not be to be forced perspective, but rather a "real life" full size tower. The execution of the overall area is really done just how you would expect it to be: perfectly themed and artistically on point. I love the wanted posters and if you look for an employee doorway at to the right of the ladies room you'll find a very serious Maximus greeting you! I love it. Why not 5 stars? Well, because it's bathrooms and planters and a cool tower. If there was a bit more use for the area, other than 1 and 2, then it would be five star with an attraction, show or character meet & greet area. I really do like this addition. Rapunzel was a big movie with my girls when they were younger and Ive a soft heart for it. Its a cool area that I look forward to seeing develop over the next few years.

The ride goes inside and out--you'll go through Space Mountain and also see Cinderella Castle, the Tomorrowland Speedway, and the retro-futuristic Astro Orbiter (to name a few attractions). I love the 1920s and 30s pulp science fiction and 1960s Space Age look (Googie architecture) of Tomorrowland. The PeopleMover at Magic Kingdom opened in 1975 (four years after the park opened) and includes a model of Progress City, Walt Disney's vision for EPCOT in the 1960s. The PeopleMover actually stopped on us when we were next to the diorama of Progress City, so I got to look at it for a while. I found the seats in the vehicles to be quite comfortable with good lower back support. There was no Lightning Lane for the PeopleMover. On a non-holiday Monday around 4:00 PM, the line was long. We waited about 10-15 minutes, which felt like a long time since we had been using Lightning Lanes for most of our recent trip to Disney World. This is the only Disney PeopleMover still in operation.
