Main Street, USA

Walt Disney World


Fashioned after Walt Disney's hometown of Marceline, MO, Main Street, USA, is best experienced with an aimless meander. Peruse the miniature dioramas of Peter Pan and Snow White in the street windows; pop in to catch the black-and-white movie reels of old Disney cartoons, and browse the hundreds of thousands of must-have Disney souvenirs.
