/* Fun Facts and Trivia */
* "La Fontaine de Cendrillon" (or Fountain of Cinderella) a bronze statue of Cinderella can be found in the center Fantasyland. This fountain is known as "Rags to Riches" because if guests stand (or kneel) in front of Cinderella and look at the painted mural behind on the castle wall, a painted image of a crown appears to be sitting on top of the princess' head. Although an adult may have to get low to see it, this was designed intentionally so that when children look at the fountain, they can clearly see the crowned princess.
* The opening day attractions in Fantasyland were, [[Dumbo the Flying Elephant]], [[it's a small world]], [[Snow White's Adventures]], [[The Mad Tea Party]], Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, The Mickey Mouse Revue and [[Cinderella's Golden Carousel]].
* The Sword in the Stone Ceremony used to take place several times each day in front of Cinderella's Golden Carousel. Presided over by Merlin the Magician, a child was chosen from the audience to remove Excalibur (the magical sword) from the stone. He or she was then appointed "temporary ruler of the realm”.
