The Magic Kingdom is a theme park at the Walt Disney World Resort. The first park built at the resort, it opened on October 1, 1971.

In Magic Kingdom you can captures the magic of fairy tales with exciting entertainment, classic attractions, backstage tours and beloved Disney Characters. Designed and built by Walt Disney Imagineering, the park's layout and attractions are similar to Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California.

History of Walt Disney Magic Kingdom
The Walt Disney Company began construction on the Magic Kingdom and the entire Resort in 1967 after the death of Walt Disney. The park itself was initially built similar to the existing Disneyland in California, however the Magic Kingdom was built in a larger area. The Magic Kingdom also improved upon Disneyland's design.

Design of Magic Kingdom
The Magic Kingdom was built over a series of tunnels, called Utilidors, a portmanteau of utility and corridor. With these tunnels cast members were able to move through the park away from the guests and not ruin the illusion of the show. Because of Florida's high water table, the tunnels could not be put underground, so they were built at the existing grade. This means that the park is actually built on the second story, and it gives the Magic Kingdom an elevation of 107 feet. The area around them was filled in with dirt removed from the Seven Seas Lagoon which was being constructed at the same time. The tunnels are only under areas that were built in the initial construction and were not extended with additions to the park. The tunnels are mostly found in the Magic Kingdom because of financial constraints, but they were meant to be employed in all subsequent Walt Disney World parks. Epcot's Future World and Pleasure Island each have a smaller network of utilidors.

Opening Day of the Walt Disney Magic Kingdom
The Magic Kingdom opened as the first part of Walt Disney's planned Florida Project on October 1, 1971. It was the only theme park on the resort at the time. The park opened with twenty-three attractions, three unique to the park and twenty copies of attractions at Disneyland. The attractions were split into six themed lands, five copies of those at Disneyland and the unique Liberty Square.

Tickets, Traveling and tour in Magic Kingdom
Becuase the Magic Kingdom is more than a mile away from its parking lot, guests are taken by the parking lot trams to the Transportation and Ticket Center. This facility, as its name implies, sells tickets to the parks and provides transportation connections throughout the resort complex. It also has a small gift shop, the Magic Kingdom's pet-boarding kennel, and the central Lost-and-Found facility for all four theme parks.

To reach the Magic Kingdom, visiting guests can choose between the monorails and the Staten Island-style ferryboats. Epcot is accessible by a spur monorail line that was added upon that park's opening in 1982. Buses take guests to the other major destinations within the resort, including Disney's Hollywood Studios and Disney's Animal Kingdom.
