At tonight’s D23 Expo, Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D’Amaro announced that Disney Adventure World will get a Lion King-themed land. The new land will feature a flume ride that takes guests to Pride Rock
“The Lion King” — which is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year — has long been a beloved Disney story. A new area of the park, Pride Lands, will be dedicated to the characters and stories from the film, including dining, shopping, and a chance to meet some favorite characters. Then, when you’re ready (you don’t have to wait to become a king for this one), head down to the caverns beneath Pride Rock. The new attraction will bring you alongside Simba’s journey from cub to king — it’s going to feel like you stepped right into the movie.

I only wish it was based off of the original film instead of the remake.
