History Planning Magic Kingdom entranceĪlthough Walt Disney had been highly involved in planning EPCOT, he died before he could see the vision through.

In 2019, the park hosted 20.9 million visitors, making it the most visited theme park in the world for the thirteenth consecutive year and the most visited theme park in North America for at least the past nineteen years. The park is represented by Cinderella Castle, inspired by the fairy tale castle featured in the 1950 film. Its layout and attractions are based on Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California, and are dedicated to fairy tales and Disney characters. The park was initialized by Walt Disney and designed by WED Enterprises. Owned and operated by The Walt Disney Company through its Parks, Experiences and Products division, the park opened on October 1, 1971, as 'Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom', the first of four theme parks at the resort.

Magic Kingdom Park, previously known as Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom (1971–1994) and The Magic Kingdom (1994–2017), is a theme park at the Walt Disney World Resort in Bay Lake, Florida, near Orlando, Florida.
