My favorite was always the Magic Kingdom with Epcot a close second. But after last year when I was able to take my kids, ages 9 and 4, and see their eyes just light up when we walked into the Magic Kingdom it made it 10 times better than it ever was before then.

Epcot would get my vote. It's simply the park that I always start my visit and end my visit with. It's something about walking in to the park and seeing Spaceship Earth tower over you, then going and walking around Future World and enjoying all there is to see there. And the trip around World Showcase is always relaxing.

My favorite would have to be Epcot. I love the world showcase and we tend to spend most of our time there. We like t try as much food as we can. haha. But it's tough cause I like MGM Studios too. I prefer Disneyland over the Magic Kingdom any day.

The Magic Kingdom is my favorite because it is place that holds my fondest memories. From Main Street U.S.A, the castle, and The Partners statue to Frontierland, and Tom Sawyer Island, to Peter Pan's Flight it is just so magical!! As a seasonal cast member this is the park I work in the most and I have a special connection to it!! :mickey: :mickey3:

has to be EPCOT for me. We spent upwards of 36 hours in that park on our trip in December last year (broken up, of course, over a couple of days). at a close second would be MK.

i like all for different reasons. mk is classic. ak for how different it is. epcot has world showcase (which is really neat with culture) and future world (lots of good rides). DHS has tot, fantasmic and muppets.

Epcot for me - it is so relaxing, a great walk to walk around the "world" and some really good dining! Japan up on the hill, the Land Grill - rotating around through the ride and even Mexico right on the World Showcase lake... all great spots and food.

Epcot is my favourite park because it has great attractions and has a history of great extinct attractions that i used to love as a kid.

I can't get enough of the Magic Kingdom, so it gets my vote. When I was a kid I thought EPCOT was a little boring, but I love it now.

Magic Kingdom epitomises all the magic of childhood innocence to me, although it was very close with Epcot.

EPCOT without a doubt has always been my favorite. It opened a year after I was born and I remember learning about energy, communications, history, and all that stuff from it's rides. It is really too bad they are dumbing the place down. I miss The Living Seas and The Universe of Energy.

I have to agree with the post about the old style Hollywood at the Studios though. That is a close second for me.

EPCOT, if only because
a. I had to choose a favorite
b. because of it's appeal to me as a kid (of course then it was ONLY Futureworld) as i have gotten older, it is still my favorite, but now I love it all!

Quite frankly, I could live at WDW...but thats another thread!

My vote is for EPCOT for several reasons. I really like Future World (Soarin' and Mission: Space are two of my favorite Disney attractions anywhere). Second, Illuminations and World Showcase are great just to stroll through (or eat at restaurants like Alfredo's or Rose & Crown). Third, in the two times I've been to WDW, I've found myself using EPCOT as a hub of sorts because I stayed in the Epcot Resorts Area both times ('98 - BoardWalk/Yacht Club, '05 - Swan) so I'd go through EPCOT in order to hop onto the monorail whenever I'd go to MK.

Second place goes to MGM because it has the original Tower, one of my top five rides in Disneydom. I love DCA's but I'd trade it for WDW's version anyday! Third is AK for Kilimanjaro Safaris and the amazing theming throughout.

I am guessing you are either new to WDW or young... :)

I don't hear many people say they like those two rides (in regards to the previous inhabitants)
