==History==
When Fantasyland was originally being designed for Walt Disney World, Imagineers initially decided that they did not want to simply make a recreation of Disneyland’s dark rides. Instead Imagineers , they wanted to replace the Disneyland dark rides ([[Snow White’s AdventureWhite's Adventures]], [[Peter Pan’s Pan's Flight]], and Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride) with new attractions, based on different movies<ref name= "Hill"> http://jimhillmedia. They 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, Imagineers came up with three new dark rides, proposals for attractions- one based on Sleeping Beauty, one based on the Legend of Sleepy Hollow, and one based on Marry Poppins<ref> http://www. Although proposed later (in 1977), another planned attraction for the Magic Kingdom was Enchanted Snow Palaceomniluxe. The attraction would have been a dark boat ride through a magic snow worldnet/wyw/mtwr.htm </ref>. Due to the extra additional cost, involved and perhaps Roy Disney’s disapproval, guest expectations it was eventually decided to recreate the Disneyland dark rides in the Magic Kingdom. According to Jim Hill, when Roy O. Disney about the plans for the new attractions he said:{{Quotation| "Why are we reinventing the wheel? We already have three rides in Southern California that people love. Let's try and save some money here by replicating those dark rides and then sending them to Central 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>.

==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's a Small World, Snow White's Adventure, 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 in front of Cinderella's Golden Carousel . Presided over by Merlin the Magician, a child was chosen from the audience to Excalibur, the magical sword from the stone.
