Obligatory birthday baby picture
There’s a majorly-overlooked little area in Disney’s Hollywood Studios that pays tribute to Walt Disney, and most people just walk right by. In honor of Walt’s birthday, we decided to stop in and show you around. Who knows, you might even learn something new!
Outside the hustle and bustle of Toy Story Land, there’s a building FULL of Disney history called Walt Disney Presents: One Man’s Dream! Here, you can learn about Walt Disney, the creation of Mickey Mouse, and so much more.
