==History==
Adventureland opened in on October 1, 1971 with three attractions, The - the [[Tropical Serenade]], The the [[Jungle Cruise]] and the [[Swiss Family Treehouse]], as well as the Safari Arcade (which wound up closing by 1972) <ref> http://www.

Lush examiner.com/article/memories-of-the-magic-kingdom-adventureland </ref>, Adventureland's lush vegetation, tribal music and Pacific architecture gave the land a “jungle like” feel. Change quickly came to  The focal point of Adventureland howeverwas The Sunshine Pavilion, when in 1973 which was sponsored by the Florida Citrus Growers from 1971 until 1986. The pavilion itself was made up of a Balinese pagoda (which marked the entrance of the Tropical Serenade) and the [[Sunshine Tree Terrace]], home of both the Citrus Swirl and the Florida Orange Grower's mascot the Orange Bird. Just outside of the Sunshine Tree Terrace, from 1971 until 2000 guests could find the Sunshine Tree that gave the snack bar its namesake <ref> http://www.omniluxe.net/wyw/stt.htm </ref>. The original theme of the land was quickly expanded with the addition of "Caribbean Plaza ".
