Disney's Magic Kingdom
LIBERTY SQUARE
Liberty Square
is Disney’s version of old time
America.
This old fashion square is a distinct replica of the colonial era. Not only
is this landmark historical, it’s functional. There are many shops and
stores to meander about. Many people find there way here and many people
love it so much they find there way back every year!
Liberty
square houses many different attractions such as,
Rivers
of America,
Hunted
Mansion, and the Hall of the Presidents. As you walk through the streets and
admire the brick covered buildings you begin to realize how authentic this
place really is. Walt Disney was a true American man and his dreams and
values are very apparent thru-out this historic land.
Liberty
square is the best place in Disney to absorb true American history. The days
of Paul revere may be long gone but you can still witness what it was like
when the past was the present.
| Customer Experience |
I live in Central Florida and I’m a Disney buff. I moved here from North Dakota to start a souvenir shop near Disney. I visit Disney about 3 times year just to see what has changed since the last time I have been there. Out of all the parks Magic Kingdom is my favorite. I say that is because there is far more to do here than anywhere in Orlando. It’s not a park made just for kids. Of coarse it’s geared towards kids but there is so much to do with in the park. Through out the park there are seven lands, my favorite little place I know is Liberty Square. My kids may be grown but I’m still a kid at heart and the haunted mansion will never stop being scary no matter how many times I ride it!

Haunted Mansion- the
Haunted
Mansion is Liberty Square's prime attraction. Settled in the
northern western corner of Liberty Square, the
Haunted
Mansion is a must see in
Magic
Kingdom. This multi-million dollar ride boosts millions
of visitors yearly. The most famous part of this ride are the
ghosts.
Hop on one of the doom buggies and get a glimpse of the inside of
the possessed mansion. One thing to remember is to avoid the hitch
hiking ghosts. Watch as ghosts appear to be dancing in the ballroom
and listen to the sounds of the dead as the place comes alive!
Liberty Square
Riverboat-
On this 17 minute cruise you will explore the “Rivers of America”.
Not only is this ride relaxing, it’s very informational too. You
will cruise about 0.5 miles around
Tom
Sawyer
Island. The steamboat, called the Liberty Belle, departs all
through out the day. Giving tours day and night, this steam powered
paddle wheel boat has a lot to offer. Some evenings a band will be
playing on the boat to help you unwind from the hustle and bustle of
the Magic Kingdom
streets.
Hall of Presidents -
Inside of this museum-like ride, you will get up close and personal
with all of the past American presidents. You can watch as
animatronic versions of our presidents sing and tell stores of our
turbulent American past. There is a video that plays at the
beginning of the ride. This video is a story of United States
history and tells of heroics that made America what it is today. All
of
America’s
accomplishments are noted in this 24 minute film. The film is topped
off with a speech from our current president George W. Bush. Even if
history is not your slice of pie, you will still find pieces of
American history that will thrill you! |

This

unique kitchen utensils. The quality ranges from high end

of useful creations that you could only expect from Disney.
“I actually work at Disney in the Yankee Trader
store. I see so many people in one day and everyone is
happy. Liberty Square is not only a historical replica of
the days of the American Revolution, it’s also a fun place
to eat and enjoy Disney for all its worth! I love helping to
make people’s dreams come true and working in
Liberty Square really makes me feel
special.”
