Epcot is my favorite Theme Park. Because of the new Test Track!
All the parks are great places to enjoy with friends and family with superb rides and shows. The worst of all these is Disneyland Paris. Built in the wettest part of France and when it looks drab in bad weather and very un-magical! Disney allow people to smoke almost everywhere even in queues! and some of the areas outside the two park gates are dirty and have "sellers" trying to sell plastic Eifel Towers etc!! Not what Disney would have wanted at all. Some rides need an update for example Peter Pan, we rode this and we couldn't make out some of the scenes as they were so dark!! It is very popular because it is the nearest to most European countries but I would say - save your money and get the sun, fun, colour and magic of the USA parks. Sorry to be a downer but we were a very disappointed family!!
Universal Orlando most certainly will be on the list next year!
There is no number 2. Is that where California Adventure is supposed to fit in?
California Adventure is number 10, Tokyo Disneyland should be number 2 but whoever wrote r the article and proofreaders must have missed the snafu of there being no number 2

What happened to number 2?
There are two #3s...
My favorite Disney park is hands-down the Hollywood studios. I'm surprised that Universal Orlando didn't get in the list.
MK and HS
Universal Studios and Islands of adventure theres no way they are not in top ten
They are not because this is a top TEN list. The y are in the top 20. Regardless of the amazing additions, or your personal feelings towards the park, one of the reasons why they are not in the top TEN attendance wise is because those two parks (USF and IOA) are significantly smaller than Disney parks. So they can't let in as many guests as Disney parks can. Universal has broken records in year to year INCREASE in attendance since the Wizarding World of Harry Potter first opened, but not overall total attendance for the year.
Here's hoping 2012's attendance list inserts California Adventure into the rankings - it deserves a place!
Love this article! Really interesting to read about! All the Disney theme parks are my favourite but I think Magic Kingdom, Orlando is the best :D
Thanks!
I love the Magic Kingdom too, but the original Disneyland (due to having Walt's personal touch) and Disneyland Paris (the first Disney park I visited) rank slightly above it in my personal list.
