Walt Disney World's Magic KingdomLake Buena Vista, FloridaLast edited by D-Man O'Connell History: The Magic Kingdom was the first theme park at Walt Disney World, opening on October 1, 1971. It opened with two Disney hotels: Disney's Contemporary Resort, and Disney's Polynesian Resort, and twenty three attractions. Unfortunately... Walt Disney didn't live to see the day it opened. In 2007 17 million people visited it making it the most visited park in the world. Hours: http://disneyworld.disney.go.com. Walt Disney World is open 365 days a year. The Fourth of July and the week between Christmas and New Year's are the busiest days at the park. Also any national vacations are extremely crowded days at the park. Tickets: Always try to buy your tickets in advance, to save time when you get to the park. For more tips and to order online, read ThemeParkInsider's guide to buying Walt Disney World tickets.
