Discovery Island
Amusement Parks, Disney's Animal Kingdom
Fodor's Review:
Primarily the site of the Tree of Life, this land is encircled by Discovery River, which isn't an actual attraction but can be viewed from a bridge in Harambe. The island's whimsical architecture, with wood carvings handmade in Bali, adds plenty of charm and a touch of fantasy to this park hub. The verdant Discovery Island Trails that lead to the Tree of Life provide habitats for kangaroos, lemurs, Galapagos tortoises, and other creatures you won't want to miss while here. It's hard to tear the kids from the glass panel in a cavelike observation area where you can see river otters frolic underwater and above. You'll find some great shops and some good counter-service eateries here, and the island is also the site of the daily Mickey's Jammin' Jungle Parade. Most of the visitor services that aren't in the Oasis are here, on the border with Harambe, including the Baby Care Center, First Aid Center, and Lost & Found.
