| The Market
Place provides some of the best window shopping opportunities in Central Florida. You
can have a great day in the Market Place and not buy a thing. (in theory) You'll probably
want to start your shopping day in the World of Disney, a disney
merchandise super-store. Inside, there are twelve themed sections spread out over 50,000
square feet of pure Disney shopping heaven. If you can't find it here, it probably doesn't
exist.
Besides World of Disney, you'll find a
number of other specialized Disney stores. Art of Disney features cell animation
and collectables; Disney at Home features interior design Disney-style and you
can find Disney activewear at Team Mickey's Athletic Club.
Other retail shops include Eurospain
crystals, Summer Sands swimwear and the Pooh Corner, a Winnie the Pooh
themed retail store.
The other major shopping attraction in the
Market Place is the LEGO Imagination Center, where you can buy all sorts
of Lego pieces and toys. There are incredible Lego models on display and kids can romp
around in an interactive outdoor playground.
Food at the Market Place tends to be of the
Lunch/ afternoon snack variety with the exception of the Rainforest Cafe. Other
eateries include a great McDonalds, Wolfgang Puck Express and
Cap'n Jack's Oyster Bar. Save room for desert at the Ghirardelli Soda Fountain and
Chocolate Shop.
After 6 PM you can go to the Rainforest
cafe to take a ferry to the House of Blues in the West Side.
