Legacy Of Walt Disney- Immortalized In The Disney World

Disney World is the epitome of the ultimate joy and fun mixed with entertainment and a great legacy. It is not just another theme park; this is the manifestation of the creative spirit of the man called Walt Disney who changed the face of the showbiz with his cult creation of various cartoon characters like the Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy.

To call Disney World a name or a theme park is an understatement by every means. A global phenomena, equally popular with the kids and the grown ups, this creation is no less iconic and carries the legacy of a man known as Walt Disney, the front man of a new era in animation and entertainment.

Walt Disney created the cartoon characters that has attained cult status over the decades and ruled a vital part of our psyche and feed our funny bones- remember the exploits of the witty Mickey Mouse or the hilarious Donald Duck?

With the rising popularity and demand of the Disney creations, theme parks started to come into existence with the Disney characters as the central idea and concept. Being the need of the hour, this idea hit the jackpot and made Walt Disney a house-hold name and led to a new horizon in show business.

The Orlando Disney World is the magnum opus of this revolution and made waves across the world when opened in 1971. Even though the man behind this epoch making development could not see his dream shaping into reality, his brother made sure that the world remembers Walt Disney with honour and awe.

This theme park is set in a massive 28,000 acres of land mass with the most modern equipments and rides. Subsequently, it has been a driving force behind the growth of Orlando as a travel destination with a monorail transport system, hotels, golf courses and shopping malls.

The story doesn't end there, following the same path are the names like the Disney MGM Studios theme Park and Disney Hollywood Studios and Disney Land resort Paris. All these establishments act as a milestone in the journey of Walt Disney to create a animated world that goes parallel with the real world and provides some comic relief to the stressed human beings and kids.
