==History==
When Fantasyland opened along with the rest of the Magic Kingdom on October1was originally being designed for Walt Disney World,1971Imagineers initially decided that they did not want to simply make a recreation of Disneyland’s dark rides. On opening day Fantasyland had more attractions then any other land in the park. Dumbo the Flying ElephantInstead, they wanted to replace the Mad Tea Party, Disneyland dark rides ([[Snow White’s AdventureWhite's Adventures]], [[Peter Pan's Flight]], and Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride) with new attractions based on different movies <ref name= "Hill"> http://jimhillmedia.com/editor_in_chief1/b/jim_hill/archive/2013/10/28/the-headless-horseman-heads-on-out-expanding-his-turf-beyond-walt-disney-world-for-the-2013-halloween-season.aspx </ref>. To do this, Cinderella’s Golden CarouselImagineers came up with three new proposals for attractions- one based on Sleeping Beauty, one based on the Mickey Mouse RevueLegend of Sleepy Hollow, “it’s a small world” and the Skyway to Tommorowland were all operationalone based on Marry Poppins <ref> http://www. Within omniluxe.net/wyw/mtwr.htm </ref>. Due to the next month, Peter Pan’s Flight additional cost involved and guest expectations it was eventually decided to recreate the 20,000 Leagues Under Disneyland dark rides in the Sea: Submarine Voyage would also open giving Fantasyland an astounding ten attractionsMagic Kingdom. Fantasyland took its inspiration from the Disney movies themselvesAccording to Jim Hill, when Roy O. In Fantasyland guests Disney about the plans for the new attractions he said:{{Quotation| "Why are immersed in we reinventing the movies wheel? We already have three rides in Southern California that people love. Let's try and the movies come save some money here by replicating those dark rides and then sending them to life through the attractionsCentral Florida. " <ref name= "Hill"/>}}
Fantasyland opened along with the rest of the Magic Kingdom on October 1, 1971. Unlike the other lands of the Magic Kingdom, Fantasyland took its inspiration from the Disney movies themselves. The opening day attractions in Fantasyland were: [[Dumbo the Flying Elephant]], the [[Mad Tea Party]], [[Snow White's Adventures]], Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride, [[Cinderella’s Golden Carrousel]], the Mickey Mouse Revue, [["it's a small world"]] and the Skyway to Tomorrowland <ref> http://thisdayindisneyhistory.homestead.com/disneyworldgrandopening.html </ref>. Within the next month, [[Peter Pan's Flight]] and the 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea: Submarine Voyage would also open <ref> http://thisdayindisneyhistory.homestead.com/disneyworldgrandopening.html </ref>, giving Fantasyland an astounding ten attractions by late 1971 <ref> http://inacents.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/1971-WDW-Magic-Kingdom-Map.jpg </ref>. Unlike Disneyland’s Fantasyland, which had more of a whimsical theme, the Magic Kingdom’s Fantasyland took a lot of inspiration from the European villages where many of the Disney stories were originally written <Ref> http://land.allears.net/blogs/jackspence/walt_disney_world/theme_parks/magic_kingdom/fantasyland/ </ref>.[[Image:CastleFantasyland2.jpg|thumb|400px|Prince Charming Regal Carrousel]]Fantasyland remained largely unchanged until 1980 when the Mickey Mouse Revue was closed and eventually moved to the new Tokyo Disneyland<ref> http://www.omniluxe.net/wyw/mmr.htm </ref>. The Fantasyland Theater which had housed the revue remained closed unused until 1987 when the 3D attraction , Magic Journeys moved in. Magic Journeys was a 3D show which showed allowed guests to see “the world through the eyes of a child”. The film had previously been shown in [[Epcot]], Disneyland, and Tokyo Disneyland before finally making its way to Walt Disney WorldThe Magic Kingdom <Ref> https://d23.com/a-to-z/magic-journeys-film/ </ref>.
The 1990's brought In the early 1990s, Fantasyland underwent a series of changes to Fantasyland. In 1993 , Magic Journeys was closed and replaced with The Legend of the Lion King. The new attraction was based on Disney's the Lion King and used puppets, animation and special effects to tell the story of the Disney's The Lion King<ref> https://www.waltdatedworld.com/id181.htm</ref>. Further change came to Fantasyland the land in 1994 , when the 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea: Submarine Voyage was closed<ref name= "leagues"> http://www. omniluxe.net/wyw/20K.htm </ref>. Although the exact reason for the attraction's closure remains unclear, 20,000 leagues Leagues was not closed due to lack of popularity, but . Instead it may have been closed because the ride was not handicap accessible, broke down frequently, had limited a small max capacity , and cost a lot to maintain. After the ride had closed , the lagoon which housed the attraction remained empty until 2004 when the lagoon was finally renovated2001 <ref name= "leagues"/>. Also in 1994, [[Snow White's Adventure Adventures]] was redesigned to be so that the attraction's plot more like closely followed the Disneyland version of film. At this time, Snow White herself was also added to the attraction<Ref name= "snow"> http://www.omniluxe.net/wyw/swa.htm </ref>. When Snow White's Adventures reopened it was renamed Snow White's Scary Adventures(a name that had been used on and off during the 1980s). The reason for the name change was that the attraction had often scared younger children and the  Imagineers Imagineers felt that some warning was necessary<ref name= "snow"/>. Another opening day attraction closed in 1998 when Mr. Toad's Wild Ride was removed. Disney thought that a more known character would be better suited for the large building that Mr. Toad's Wild Ride was housed in. The ride was still popular however, and when news of the attractions closure spread a “Save Toad” campaign was started. Despite the campaign Mr. Toad's Wild Ride closed on September 7, 1998. The attraction was replaced by the Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, which opened in 1999. In 1999 the Skyway to Tommorowland was also closed after a Disney World employee was killed while cleaning a platform on the attraction. Although Disney said that the accidental death had nothing to do with the rides closing the Skyway would never open again.

==Fun Facts and Trivia==
* "La Fontaine de Cendrillon" (or Fountain of Cinderella),is a bronze statue of Cinderella located can be found in the center of Fantasyland. This fountain is known as "Rags to Riches" because if you guests stand (actually, you may have to or kneel) in front of Cinderella and look at the painted mural behind it 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[[it's a Small Worldsmall world]], [[Snow White's AdventureAdventures]], The 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 daily in the area behind Cinderella Castle and 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”.
