The Attractions That Don't Get the Attention They Deserve

[Blackie Pueblo]

All the poles and topics on favorite rides, hated rides, etc got me thinking. We all love Disney world, and have special places for the rides that stand out. But what about the little stuff about Disney World that doesn't get the attention it maybe should. Like, what attractions or rides do you love, but it seems to get little attention or is almost unknown by some visitors.

For example-
Magic Kingdom: I love the river boat that goes around Tom Sawyer Island. It's a really nice relaxing ride with some great sights of the island, the Haunted Mansion, and some things you can't see well enough unless your on the boat. But not too many people take this scenic trip.

EPCOT: As good as it is, I am still amazed by people who haven't heard of The American Adventure show. This is by far one of the greatest Animatronic shows in the Disney World resorts.

I'm sure there are other attractions that I love that may not get attention, but I can't think of anymore right now. What about you guys? Maybe there is a piticular show, or place to eat? Place to shop?

I agree that the American Adventure is very underrated . . . nice story, good animatronics, plus it just makes you feel proud to be an American. I've ran into several people who have been to Epcot numerous times and have never seen the show. What a shame !

Impression Du France. It Is Not A Trip To Epcot Without Seeing This Movie.

TTA!!! No line, great view, shade, inside space mountain, I just love the TTA.

The whole Norway pavilion is great. Good ride, nice place to eat, just great atmosphere.

The Backlot tour at MGM is awsome (they have the space ship from flight of the Navigator for crying out loud!)

And AK dosn't really have enough stuff for anything to really be under rated. :animwink:
