Theme Park:	Magic Kingdom (since 1971)
	Part of the Resort Walt Disney World Resort

Operated by:	Walt Disney Parks and Resorts

Magic Kingdom in Bay Lake, Florida, was the first theme park to open at Walt Disney World Resort in 1971. Inspired by the original Disneyland in California, the park took Walt Disney’s classic theme park concept and adapted it on a much larger scale. At its center stands Cinderella Castle, which has become one of the most recognizable symbols of Walt Disney World.

The park is divided into six themed lands, from the nostalgic Main Street, U.S.A. and the jungles of Adventureland to Fantasyland and the futuristic world of Tomorrowland. Many of Disney’s most famous attractions can be found here, including Pirates of the Caribbean, Haunted Mansion and Space Mountain, alongside newer additions such as TRON Lightcycle / Run. Parades, character encounters and the nightly fireworks over Cinderella Castle remain just as much a part of the Magic Kingdom experience.

More than five decades after opening, Magic Kingdom still represents the classic Disney theme park experience at Walt Disney World. Its combination of familiar attractions, elaborate themed lands and generations of Disney history makes it a park that continues to appeal to both first-time visitors and returning guests.

Walibi Belgium located in Wavre nearby the capital Brussels is the biggest theme park in Belgium. The park was founded in 1975 by the Belgian Businessman Eddy Meeùs and is currently being operated by the french group Compagnie des Alpes. The park features state of the art roller coasters and water rides, like the prototype of the Mack Rides Power Splash.

Fun Fact #1: The park is named after the surrounding cities Wavre, Limal and Bierges. The mascot is therefore a wallaby.

Fun Fact #2: The park was operated by the American theme park group Six Flags between 2001 and 2004. In order to promote the park in Europe, Six Flags Belgium was one of the parks featured in the game Roller Coaster Tycoon 2.

Fun Fact #3: The roller coaster Sirocco became world famous after a train got stuck in an upside down position. When the ride was being enclosed during its transformation to Turbine (now Pskyé Underground) a platform for evacuation was installed in the middle of the loop.
