An iconic Disney World souvenir is also one of the only FREE things you can get in the parks!

Does anyone else love picking up a paper map in Disney World to see all the attractions and restaurants laid out in a colorful display? There’s just something nostalgic about these maps — we know you get it. Now, one Disney World park’s map has been updated with a few major CHANGES. Take a look here!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom has gone through some big changes recently, and the new park map proves it. The first change you’ll notice is the front cover of the new map. It used to be a picture of the Finding Nemo: The Big Blue…and Beyond! stage show…

…but now it’s a picture of a family in front of the Tree of Life.

On the back of the map, the Disney World 50th Anniversary section has been updated to remove the KiteTails section. This show (featuring colorful kites flown over Discovery River Lagoon) was permanently closed after its last performance on September 30th of this year.

This section now includes a segment on the Beacon of Magic show, which takes place on the Tree of Life every evening.

Inside the map, KiteTails has also been removed from the list of attractions. And if you look at the DinoLand U.S.A. section, you’ll see that something else is missing too — the Dino Diner snack stand is now gone.

The snack stand itself has been missing for a while now (replaced with a small snack kiosk), and now the map shows this update.

Those are all the changes made to this edition of Animal Kingdom’s park map. If you’re heading into Animal Kingdom soon and don’t know what to wear, don’t worry — we’ve got you covered! We created a full outfit just for this park, and it has a hoodie that’s perfect for the upcoming winter season. Click below to shop the look.
