Discoveryland: Overview and Layout

 

OVERVIEW:

Throughout time, there have been many people who imagined the future. Such people included Leonardo da Vinci, Jules Verne, and H. G. Wells. They wrote about their ideas in their works, but unfortunately, many of them never got to become a reality.

However, this place is where they do. This is where ideas from great visionaries, writers, and thinkers come to life. It shows how humanity can be benefited from them, and at the same time, it offers great adventures.

In short, this is the future that never got to be, but inspired the futures to come. It's tomorrow imagined from yesterday.

LAYOUT:

This area is split into three parts. The first area is themed to Science Fiction writers like Jules Verne and H. G. Wells. Done in Victorian style, it splits the land in two with a lagoon with the Nautilus. Underground is 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, which is similar to the Disneysea version. At the end of it is Space Mountain: From the Earth to the Moon, which is similar to the former attraction in Paris.

In the northern part of the land is a place recreating a German city in the early 20th Century. This area is themed to German scientists like Albert Einstein and Sigmund Freud. It also features Horizons, a new version of the former Epcot ride.

Finally, in the southern portion of the land is a place recreating Renaissance-era Florence, based off Da Vinci. Here, guests can ride the Orbitron in the center, see the Da Vinci Fortress, or glide on his flying machine in Soarin'.
