Walt Disney World is the most visited theme park destination in the world, welcoming over 50 million guests annually.
At 27,000 acres, the resort is roughly twice the size of Manhattan.
The Magic Kingdom's famous underground tunnels (called "utilidors") allow cast members and supplies to move invisibly beneath the park.
Disney World has its own fire department, water treatment plant, and electrical grid — it operates as a self-sufficient city.
The park uses over 3 million gallons of water and 270,000 light bulbs per day.
