Changes

Modeled after a small American towns, and set in the early 1900's, Main Street gets its architecture from different regions in the United States including Boston and Missouri. The change in architecture is easiest to see when at the four corners of the land. Main Street begins when guests emerge from under the Walt Disney World Railroad, and ends when they reach the base of Cinderella's Castle. Although Main Street does not have particular “rides” like the rest of the lands, it does have its own unique attractions including the Walt Disney World Railroad, and the Main Street Vehicles. Also on Main Street are individual shops and restaurants which add to its small town appeal.
