Great views from rides

In the best thrill ride thread, someone mentioned the view on the initial climb of Expedition Everest as one of the great things about WDW. I totally agree with this and it got me thinking I also love the view when you're coming around Splash Mountain on the way up and have a great view of the park. Even better is the final drop of Splash Mountain which if you're not too busy watching your impending descent can be fantastic. We once dropped in the middle of Wishes and it was AWESOME. What other great views from rides are there? (Not necessarily just from high places either)

Tower of Terror, of course! Especially like that one at night.

Dunno if the Monorail counts, but I love coming into Epcot via Monorail and seeing the unusual views of Epcot.

That's a great point.

Also, you can get some interesting views from the top of the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse! I'm sure the views from Characters in Flight aren't bad either!

BTMRR is a great ride at night too. That's a great suggestion. I love some of the views from there.
