There is so much to see in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, but did you know there’s even more that you CAN’T see?
Welcome to Animal Kingdom!
Animal Kingdom is the largest Disney World park, even though many people feel it’s a half-day park with its lack of attractions. But most of the park’s square mileage is all the land for the animals to roam. While you can see lots of it taking the train to and from Rafiki’s Planet Watch and on Kilimanjaro Safaris, there’s so much left unseen at Animal Kingdom, and we just found out a secret we never knew!
We are constantly in the Disney parks so we are able to see what is new!

And if it’s a special brunch you’re after, the Four Seasons is the secret spot you might want to check out this spring.
