Best Park After Dark

I was in a discussion with someone who was saying that Animal Kingdom EMH aren't worth it because nothing's open. Even though I disagree with the nothing being open part, let's just ignore rides. Which park is the best to walk around in, relax and enjoy at night?

I love wandering Animal Kingdom and Epcot at night! It's true that nothing's open at AK, but there really aren't that many attractions to begin with! It's a beautiful park at night.

Interestingly, I kind of find MK's Frontierland and Adventureland kind of creepy at night, but I like Tomorrowland after dark, and Main STreet!

My fave at night is Epcot. But then, I've never tried Animal Kingdom at night. That might be interesting.

I'd have to agree with Epcot, but Main St. and the Castle sure are pretty at night.......

Epcot or DHS for me. The WS pavillions at night are more scenic that the day for me. I love the atmosphere at DHS and it feels almost like a street part once the lights come on.

I have to go with Magic Kingdom -- the lights, the atmosphere - it's a little more magical at night. Though, not surprisingly, I'd prefer it when it's not crowded!

A good point about the crowds. AK may get extra credit because it's very rarely crowded at night. MK is almost always crowded. waiting

I'm going with Epcot as well. Everything looks completely different when those spotlights come on that highlight the countries. Canada and the Mexico pyramid are really beautiful.

Future World can get a little boring, though!

Might have to try AK now, too!

Future World has those fun little lights in the ground that you don't notice by day though!

I think that once it gets dark people don't want to ride Splash Mountain as much and those lands start to get a little deserted. Everyone heads over to Tomorrowland.

I'd probably pick World Showcase, but Animal Kingdom is a close second. DHS is great after dark when they have the Osbourne Family Lights!
