I really enjoy walking along the bridge at the Pop Century resort and just sitting and enjoy the peace and quiet and the view!! Of course my next trip will be to SSR so I hope to find a new quiet spot there!!!!

I can always hide under the Waterfall at Polynesian Pool and get away! Loud, but quiet at the same time.

At the studios its in the evenings at the Sunset Mkt are.

At the Mk its in the back corner in the seating area at Pecos Bills.

At Epcot it at Seasons in the evening.

And at Ak it is Flame Tree BBQ seating on the lower level.

Another great one is the rose garden at th Mk.

Another place I go when I need quiet is WoL. The flower beds our front (outside the rope barrier) are nice for sitting.... plus with no one over there, it's very quiet. Although there are times when I duck under the rope and go snooping up in there..... that's really peaceful!

We really like to sit on the balcony from the train station on Main Street. You're above all the hustle and bustle so it's nice.

Also really like the alleyways of Main St. You can get away from the crowds and still be in the disney environment....there are always benches there too.

In the Magic Kingdom, there's a small tree shaded space in Liberty Square just left from the bridge from Main Street area that's behind the shops area. Got some benches. No one hangs around in this area.

I agree, just outside WoL is very peaceful. In the French pavillion behind the flower garden to the right is nice and quiet most of the day. The bench is in the sun most of the day, which may be why it's often ignored, but it's great in early spring. Aurora walks by every hours or so, too.

My favorite place has to be in the Animal Kingdom, near the end of the Maharajah Jungle Trek. It's just after you pass over the bridge in the tiger enclosure, there are a few lovely benches that are in shade most of the day. You're surrounded by tall bamboo and you can hardly hear the noise from the nearest path (the exit to Kali River Rapids, I think). So pretty!

Such a good question! I don't even know where our quiet spot would be? Typically our resort is our quiet place. We're very fortunate to utilize the DVC and typically have a nice room to relax in.

Otherwise, SSE is honestly one of my favorites to sit on and just relax.

At AK it's definitely flame tree. No real quiet spot at DHS. Epcot has lots of quiet areas around World Showcase especially the gardens in the UK. I like the rocking chairs in Liberty Square for a quiet spot in MK.

I've done that also!! It is a great place to hide! Also a real good place late is at the AK Lodge. There's no one at the fire pit late.

In POR, there is a courtyard on the Sassagoula River side of the Oak Manor Building that is just delightful. Its quiet and beautiful and I could spend hours and hours there. People walk by now and then...the shuttle boat heads to DD every so often...the occasional sound of the nearby quiet pool...the horse and carriage clomps on the walkway between POFQ and POR...it's just heaven!

Probably the hub of the Magic Kingdom or the line for Mission Space... just kidding! Seriously, the best place is on a corner bench in the Mexican pavilion or trying the beer tray at the UK between lunch and dinner.

Ya know, I have found that pretty much sitting anywhere in the park really does create a relaxing feel for a person since the go, go, go atmosphere makes things feel relaxed by comparison.
