History
of Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom
The Magic Kingdom was Disney's second theme park,
opening October 1, 1971. For years, it was the only
destination of note within the massive Walt Disney World
complex, so most people came to know the park simply
as "Disney World." Disney later added Epcot in 1982,
the Disney-MGM Studios in 1989 and Disney's Animal Kingdom
in 1998. The Magic Kingdom follows pretty much the same
layout as California's Disneyland, though on a much
larger parcel of land.
