WDW Greatest Attractions
Counting down the 50 greatest attractions at Walt Disney World. Ever.
2. Haunted Mansion (Magic Kingdom, 1971)
The first attraction built for Walt Disney World was a drawn-out disaster of disorganized ideas that turned into a masterpiece.
3. Journey into Imagination (EPCOT Center, 1983)
An impossibly abstract concept is tackled through wonderfully detailed set design, an unforgettable song, and a loveable fellow.
5. Splash Mountain (Magic Kingdom, 1992)
Combining a massive dark ride with a peaceful ride system, then dotting it with unparalleled thrills is a recipe for legend status.
6. Horizons (EPCOT Center, 1983)
The thematic and emotional centerpiece of Futureworld made you believe tomorrow would be awesome because of you.
15. Spaceship Earth (Epcot '94, 1994)
The most epic scope and tone of any Disney attraction serves as the center piece for a completely different kind of theme park.
17. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (Magic Kingdom, 1971)
It may have been too difficult to survive forever, but in its day, Captain Nemo took guests on an adventure without peer.
19. Mr. Toad's Wild Ride (Magic Kingdom, 1971)
A nightmare of twists, turns, and near-misses balanced with color and humor far exceeded the simple dark ride design.

Color, detail, and unique movement take you into a cartoon while being fully linked to the lineage of the dark ride.

A brilliant blitz of nostalgia for both fans of film and theme parks alike, on a grand scale like nothing seen before or since.
32. Countdown to Extinction (Disney's Animal Kingdom, 1998)
Utilizing a ground-breaking ride system, extremely cool animatronics, and a cult iconic host, this ride should be enjoyed on its own merits.

An enduring opening day classic continues to stand tall against 50 years of advancement in ride tech.
35. Seven Dwarf's Mine Train (Magic Kingdom, 2014)
The perfect example of an attraction being more for how it affects the experience of the park as a whole, not just the experience inside.
41. Na'vi River Journey (Disney's Animal Kingdom, 2017)
Despite having a little bit of a little brother complex, this is a near-perfect use of the perfect ride system and setting.
46. Listen to the Land (EPCOT Center, 1982)
Touring the food you can eat somehow manages to be extremely cool.
49. Under the Sea - Journey of the Little Mermaid (Magic Kingdom, 2012)
