Frankly, I'm flabbergasted that three people voted for Animal Kingdom, which is the park I would rank a distant last. Itzazhu.
I LOVE AK. EPCOT is still my first choice, I think its the music they play, always brings me back to old WDW memories from being a kid and traveling there with my parents.
But I love, love, love AK. I actually think the AK-hate comes mostly from old time disney fans. Whenever I talk to new guests or new disney fans AK tops out. Its a gorgeous park with a unique spin if you ask me. It has a peacefulness that I think the other parks lack and houses some of my favorite attractions.

MK is the automatic for me,I'm kinda surprised how well epcot is doing in this poll!!??
I like epcot too but sometimes in reading others replies,I get the feeling Epcot could be losing some of it's appeal.
In contrast AK is really growing on me,I wish
EE was functioning at it's intended plendor

I chose MK, but DHS is also a fave.

There really should be more than one choice. For me it is a tie between MK and Epcot. But I chose Epcot because my daughter and I spent the majority of our visit last week there exploring and having a great time making memories.

Epcot is my favorite, but I would like for them to add a few more countries to the WS. I don't think they have added one since Norway back in the late 80's!

Everyone enjoys their vacation in different ways and WDW offers a great cross section. It may be "azhu" to you, but it has a beauty all it's own (especially at night) And I will take it over any other park if given only a day.
I agree it is a great park at night...but the big problem is that it almost always closes before night fall truly sets in. I like it OK, but we never do a whole day there....and regardless of the natazu phraseology, to my family it really is "Azhu" at heart ... & until its gets another high-end E-ticket type ride, lots of folks will see it that way.
By the way, I'm not sure why the whole "zoo thing" is considered to be such a perjorative, being a zoo isn't a bad thing...zoos are nice place to visit...and a zoo with rides is even better.
There's a great big beautiful tomorrow

I went with EPCOT, but AK is a close second! MK would be third and DHS....can't stand most of it!

for me it came down to must see attractions at each park and the feeling i have when i am in the park.
from last to first-
AK- I love this park. it's calming at times So well done. But for me, it's half a day, 3/4 of a day at best. it's probably why i always go w/ a park hopper cause i know i won't go there long. For me i have to go on the safari, Nemo, and Lion King. everything else is cool, but if i got those three in, i could leave and be content. I will say for me, they do have the coolest christmas parade.
Epcot-this was really hard to put at 3. By far to me, the most beautiful park on the planet. So well done. The feeling at night is so awesome as well. so calming and cool, and nice. My all time favorite moment was going to American Adventure on the last show, right at park closing. by the time it was over the park was empty. I had a nice lesuire walk to the front w/ no one but me. it was so incredible. I did stop a lot to just take in the mood. Epcot is the one park you can go to and not go on one ride or show and be happy. but i would have to say i can't leave epcot unless i go on Soarin'. Imagination, and American Adventure.
MK- for me this is the anchor tenant. if i could only go to one park on a trip, this would be the one, but that doesn't make it my favorite. it's just because it's the real deal. No vacation at Disney begins until i walk down mainstreet. that one walk is always my favorite moment. Just being MK is enough. as far as rides and shows, i'd have to go on Peter pan, Small world, and Splash mountain, no trip to MK will be complete unless i do those 3 at least twice.
HS-Which leads me to my favorite, HS. I know it's not a popular park for many, but for me i just love the park. it's so alive. I love how out of no where a street show just starts up. I love the mood and how bright it is. But more importantly it has more must do rides and shows than any other park. I can't leave w/o doing Rock and roll rollercoaster, tower of terror, Walt-A man and his dream, Toy Story, fantasmic, American Idol, and beauty and the beast.
Not to mention it's where they do the Imagineer luncheon at the brown derby, so that in it self makes it one of my favorites.
great poll, thanks for posting.

Love MK! It's what most people think of when they hear Wlat Disney World. But I love parts of all the parks. MK is nostalgic, walking up Main St. USA towards Cinderellas castle...there's nothing quite like it. Epcot is amazing in so many ways and embodies culturalism. Love that each country employs ppl from that country. HS has 2 great rides, TOT & RNRC, but lousy dining choices. Animal Kingdom has EE and interesting trails to see animals. They all have great points!

I voted for MK because for me there is nothing like walking down Main Street to start a trip. I think there's a lot of nostalgia for me from when my boys were small that will stay in my heart forever.
We do tend to spend more time at DHS now that they're older, it's definitely their favorite. While they're riding, I'm usually watching the street shows which I find very enjoyable.

My DH would say EP, but I am going with AK. The Studios we are not too fond of, but the other three are nearly even. Just a slight edge to AK. Less rides there, but there is just something about the ambience that I love.

This is the order mine go in....
1st. Magic Kingdom - I love Magic Kingdom because it brings back memories and is very nastalgic. Plus I love almost all the classic Disney movies and almost every ride is themed to one of these movies so I love the rides too. Plus it just makes me feel like a 4 year old again with all the magic Plus it also has Splash Mountain my favorite ride !
Epcot (tied for first)- I love culture and learning new things. Plus I love the combination of the past, the present, and the future. Spaceship Earth and Soarin are also some of my favorite rides both make me feel so happy. Plus it has Figment so thats good too.
Animal Kingdom- I love animals and culture so this park is still really great. Plus it has some great shows!
Hollywood Studios - Last is Hollywood Studios great park but it just isnt as magical for me so it comes in at last. But it still is great. Because it has some fun rides and shows.(ex..Fantasmic,Tot, and Rockin Roller Coaster)

MK is and always has been my favorite. It's where I feel most like a little kid. But I love walking around Epcot especially at night.

There is nothing like that first visit "walk in" to the Magic Kingdom.
There is nothing like the smell on main street.
There is nothing like the first sound of "Wishes".
There is nothing like the Magic Kingdom.
