A look inside Under the Sea - Journey of the Little Mermaid at the New Fantasyland

First opened at the Disneyland Resort in June 2011, “The Little Mermaid” now finds a second home as a new Magic Kingdom dark ride called Under the Sea ~ Journey of the Little Mermaid. Today Walt Disney World soft opened the new attraction for the first time, along with the majority of New Fantasyland. Though the ride itself is mostly the same as its California counterpart, the approach and surrounding area add a whole new level of detail and theming into this highly-anticipated attraction.

Sitting atop the site once home to the beloved 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea ride, Journey of the Little Mermaid offers an entirely different type of undersea adventure for theme park guests. Rather than descending into a real lagoon in a submarine, guests now embark on a dry journey “under the sea” through special effects, winding up face-to-face with Ariel, Sebastian, Flounder, and that diabolical villain Ursula, brought to life on a massive scale as an impressively believable Audio-Animatronics figure. Guests glide through familiar scenes while hearing memorable songs from the 1989 animated film, all while riding slow-moving clamshell vehicles.
Enjoy the pics, and the incredible details!

Types of Topiary Four different types of topiary at the Walt Disney World resort have developed out of our desire to put on an award-winning horticultural show. Free-form topiary and standard form topiary require your imagination and some sharp shears - the other two utilize a frame specially suited to their needs. A lightweight frame is used for shrub topiary, while sphagnum topiary require a much stronger frame specially designed to support the weight of the figure. Standard Form Topiary The world standard is used to describe a plant that is grown to a designated height and then encouraged to bush or form a "head" at t...

"We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths". - Walt Disney

Greetings, fellow Disney enthusiasts! I would like to extend my sincerest apologies for my prolonged absence from the website. Due to recent personal and professional changes, I have had to prioritize certain aspects of my life over my beloved hobby. However, I am determined to turn this passion into something even more significant in the near future. As a result, the website will be undergoing a much-needed redesign within the next month or so. During this time, no new updates will be available on the site. However, please feel free to stay up-to-date with any breaking news or updates by following my Twitter or Instagram feeds.
