China

 

One of two family areas in the park, this area takes inspiration from the beauty and majesty of China, as well as the Kung-Fu Panda films. Here, guests are immersed in the Valley of Peace. This is similar to the Land of Awesomeness in Beijing, but it is not indoors.

When coming in from Egypt, guests are immersed in an Ancient Chinese area. Here, they can find Warrior Wares on the left and Mr. Ping's Noodle House on the right. Going further in, guests will find two family attractions. Lantern Race is one of them, and it spins guests over a Chinese garden in a flying lantern. The other one is Noodle Bowls, a teacups attraction where guests spin around in bowls. Towards the end of the area is Chinese Kitchen, another Chinese restaurant. Nearby is the Jade Palace, where guests can ride the boat ride Kung-Fu Panda: Journey of the Dragon Warrior. Similar to a ride found in Beijing, guests travel to the Valley of Peace to celebrate, but when Po accidentally releases evil villains from the Urn of Eternal Torment (in his defense, he thought it was a cookie jar), he and the Furious Five must band together to stop them. The ride exits into Master Shifu's Kung-Fu Emporium. Po Live! an interactive Turtle Talk-esque show starring Po, can also be found here.

When putting together a world travel park, I knew I wanted to do something Asian, and China came up real quick. With Kung-Fu Panda being set there, it only made sense to include that as well.

Egypt

  Guests travel back to the perils of 1920's Egypt, where old archaeological sites hold dark secrets and ancient curses. This is a thrill-seeker's area with its key attraction, although it also has things for younger adventurers too. When entering through Jumanji, guests come into a Middle Eastern bazaar. Here, they can shop at Ancient Accessories and Egyptian Antiques as well as eat at the Explorer's Inn. Further down is a play area for kids, Lost Ruins. Guests can also ride cars through the Egyptian Ruins on the Ruins Exploration Cars, which feature old automobiles hat guests can ride. However, the major attraction of this land is found in an ancient tomb, and it is the Revenge of the Mummy coaster, which is similar to the one in Orlando and Singapore. The ride exits into Mummy Mementos. Sahara Snacks is a nearby snack stand. Attractions: 11. Lost Ruins 12. Ruins Exploration Cars 13. Revenge of the Mummy Dining: AB. Explorer's Inn AC.

Jumanji

  So this might not be a real area in the world, but I still wanted to include it since I ran out of ideas for country and world region-inspired areas. This section is mainly based off the 2017 sequel/reboot series, even though a few nods to the original can be found throughout the land. When guests enter through London, they enter the jungle....literally. They are immediately immersed in a jungle outpost where things from all over the mythical land of the game are seen. Nearby is Nigel's Cafe, a dining location, while Traders of Jumanji is located nearby as well. Towards the back of the area is Jaguar River Rapids, where guests ride rafts through Jumanji, only to come across some supernatural perils. The key attraction of this area is found further on. Here, guests will board EMV jeeps (similar to Disneyland's Indiana Jones Adventure ride) and travel through Jumanji on a ride combining animatronics, screens, and visual effects known as the Jumanji Expedition.   Lost Treasures...
