The
design of the universal studios was made to serve both the purpose of a
studio and a theme park from the beginning only. The one present in Orlando has taken the concept of the studio present in Hollywood. The
attractions in here are often replaced with new and more interesting ones. Few
of these attractions which have been replaced are Kongfrontation, Back to the
Future: The Ride and many more.
The universal
studios Orlando,
has designed six themed areas which are all placed around a lagoon. The themed
areas are namely, Production Central, New York,
San Francisco, World Expo, Woody Woodpecker’s
Kidzone and completing the circle is Hollywood.
All these sections have different rides, attractions, some product stores,
Character appearances, shows and food outlets. The Production Central is at the
entrance of the park. In this part there are two attractions which are shrek
themed. One is Shrek 4-D, which makes the guests travel from Shrek 1 and Shrek
2. Next is Donkey’s Photo Finish, in this the guests are provided with an
interaction to the characters. There is The Universal Music Plaza Stage, where
live concerts take place. In the New York

of the Mummy: The Ride and Twister…Ride it Out. San Francisco is the next section. A live
