Rainforest in The Middle of The City

       Lake Buena Vista - Downtown Disney's Rainforest cafe is part of a national chain.  This restaurant offers a fun dinner with plenty of excitement to watch while you eat.  There are two Rainforest Cafe's at the Disney World Resort in Florida.  There is one at the Animal Kingdom Theme Park, and a Rainforest Cafe in the Downtown Disney Marketplace. 
     Downtown Disney is a shopping, dining, and entertainment destination in the southwest corner of the Disney World property.  Guests who are particularly inspired by the rainforest theme may visit the extensive gift ship after their meal.
     The Rainforest experience begins before you enter the restaurant.  A towering volcano rises from the top of the restaurant.  As you get closer to the restaurant you will see waterfalls cascading from volcanic crevices.  Around the entrance to the Rainforest are blooming tropical plants, more trickling water, and jungle animals in their natural habitat.  Sometimes, live tropical birds will be there, with their handlers, for guests to admire. 
      The experience continues inside the restaurant.  Cylindrical, long salt-water fish tanks are spaced throughout the dining area and add tropical color and tropical environment feel.  Trees tower from the restaurant floor and vines dangle from the spreading treetop canopy.  Indoor waterfalls, and a variety of species of animals in the tropical-rainforest tanks, add constant sound, and motion to the restaurant that truly makes the restaurant seem like it is alive with plants and animals.  Exotic tropical trees and plants in tanks are not the only decorative feature of the Rainforest Cafe.  The restaurant is also full of jungle creatures.  Monkeys swing from the treetops, a herd of elephants loom from the dense forest, and birds native to the tropical-rainforest fly overhead or sit perched on the trees.  The ceiling of the restaurant is an artificial sky that spreads a twilight glow over the restaurant and twinkles with thousands of stars.  Sometimes an afternoon thunderstorm rolls through, but guests are in no danger of being soaked, as rain washes through the dining area.  After the rain the animals begin to come alive again.  See also  www.disneyworld.com.
