Extract:
Covering 43 sq miles (111 sq km) and with an average daily visitor population of 100,000, Walt Disney World Resort is by far the largest of Orlando's three theme parks and any of its major attractions could rank as theme parks in their own right. The resort lies off Interstate 4, 16 miles (26km) from downtown Orlando. Halfway between Disney and the town is Universal Studios Orlando and between Disney and Universal lies the aquarium and theme park of SeaWorld.
