What to expect at Magic Kingdom Disney World
Disney World is one of the Major Attraction in United States and my first visit at Magic Kingdom in Orlando, Florida was a wonderful experience. This was my long term bucket list to visit Disney Theme Parks and during the winter, it was a perfect weather to visit Disney at Florida. In the north east, we have a slightly bad winter and during that time of the year Florida has a perfect weather.
It’s better to stay till late evening as there are some light shows and fireworks which are awesome and definitely something not to miss. You can find the lightings on the castle and all of magical kingdom which is quite a scene to watch.
Prepare to be transported to a realm of unparalleled wonder as you step into the enchanting world of Magic Kingdom at Disney World at Orlando, Florida. From the moment you pass under the iconic Cinderella Castle, the air is charged with a contagious sense of excitement.
Be ready for a tapestry of experiences, where classic attractions like Space Mountain and Pirates of the Caribbean seamlessly intertwine with the timeless charm of characters like Mickey and Cinderella. Fantasyland beckons with its fairy-tale allure, promising whimsical encounters and magical moments. As you traverse the park’s meticulously themed lands, from the futuristic wonders of Tomorrowland to the rustic charm of Frontierland, each step unveils a new chapter in the adventure.
The day crescendos with the “Happily Ever After” fireworks spectacular, illuminating the night sky in a dazzling display of color and magic. Amidst the culinary delights, immersive attractions, and the ever-present enchantment, expect a day at Magic Kingdom to be an unforgettable journey into the heart of fantasy and joy.
Best Time to Visit Magic Kingdom
We went in late November and early December time frame during which the weather was mild. During out 8 day trip, only a couple of days were slightly cooler where we needed a thin jacket. Rest of the days were super warm and we were able to thoroughly enjoy the theme parks and site seeing experiences. They have a great Carousel as you are seeing in the below picture, it was a great experience for my toddler kid and we all thoroughly enjoyed the trip.
Almost every ride is kid friendly in Magic Kingdom unlike other parks like Universal or Animal Kingdom which I will cover in a separate article. If your kid is fond of the Disney characters it will be a real treat for them to be at Disney World.
There are some scary thrill rides like Space Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and splash Mountain but they are more fun rides than a real thrill rides for most kids. Disney Animal Kingdom is another must visit park if you’re visiting Disney.
