Downtown Disney

Some people come to Walt Disney World and spend all of their time at the parks and never have time to visit Downtown Disney. They think that Downtown Disney is just a place for shopping and dining which they can already do at Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney's Hollywood Studios or even Disney's Animal Kingdom parks. Some people have been to Downtown Disney at Disneyland in Anaheim, California, and think that it is just the same.

However, Downtown Disney at Walt Disney World is much larger than Downtown Disney at Disneyland. There is shopping and dining, of course, but there is also entertainment that most Downtown Disney do not have. Kids will also enjoy Walt Disney World's Downtown Disney. They can play with legos and virtual reality games. There are also statues of Disney characters throughout Downtown Disney for people to take pictures with. You will almost feel like you have not left Disney parks. All food stands will sell similar foods to what you will find in Disney parks.

Downtown Disney not only attract tourists, it also attract the locals to come and enjoy themselves, eat and shop. There are many areas to park but there are only two bus stations where Disney buses will drop you off and pick up if you are staying at one of the Disney's resorts. Here are some of the attractions, dining and entertainment at Downtown Disney area.
