  2. It is really great list and thanks for sharing. Theme parks have major attractions for travelers and enhance the tourist attractions variety gradually that is a major cause, increasing the visitors’ statistics rapidly.

  3. What always,always amazes me, is that Disney's MK gets 6 mill. plus visitors than the next Epcot. I kind of understand what the others (Universal/Seaworld parks etc.) don't get them.
    The reason (in my opinion) being that they basically Disney fans not really theme park fans in general but Disney fans.
    But really, common 6 more million people don't bother to go to Epcot/Holl. Studios/Animal Kingdom.
    I know that number is probably tainted in a way from Florida residents, etc. but still there a lot of people that just goes to Magic Kingdom.

    To me that's amazing.
