Tropical Americas Land

A Tropical Americas-themed land is replacing DinoLand USA at Disney's Animal Kingdom. The new land features an Encanto ride, an Indiana Jones ride, and more

Welcome to Pueblo Esperanza

A new adventure awaits at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park with the addition of a new space themed around Tropical Americas. Welcome to Pueblo Esperanza. Work on the 11-acre section of Disney’s Animal Kingdom is underway, and the new land will feature Encanto and Indiana Jones attractions. Just like Harambe, the land feels lived in, with a long, rich history — plus there’s a large hacienda which will be one of the largest quick-service restaurants at Walt Disney World Resort.

The space will be lush and sprawling, featuring a large fountain in the center where the villagers like to gather and tell stories. Additionally, a woodcarver has created a giant working carousel featuring his favorite animals from Disney stories.
