Disney's Hollywood Studios is a celebration of the magic of the movies and is home to some of the most exciting new openings, including Toy Story Land and Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge.

There are more experiences than there are rides for younger children, but teens and tweens will love it, as Disney's Hollywood Studios is home to some of the most thrilling rides across all four parks.

The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror's plummet is thrilling, and Star Tours - The Adventures Continue flight simulation through space is exciting, and Rock 'n' Roller Coaster is Disney's only coaster with upside-down inversions.

Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge offers plenty of immersive experiences in the themed land, including droid creation and personalized lightsaber-making. Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance sees riders joining the Resistance and eventually breaking out of a Star Destroyer controlled by Kylo Ren, while the Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run ride lets passengers pilot the famed "Star Wars" vessel.

Unlike other Walt Disney World parks, there are as many shows in Hollywood Studios as there are rides. Our favorites include Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular and Fantasmic!

Character meet-and-greets with "Star Wars" characters, like BB-8, are offered at Star Wars Launch Bay, and you can meet Woody, Jessie, and Buzz Lightyear in Toy Story Land.
Because all of the attractions are fairly new, they do have longer than normal wait times, so you will want to plan a day and a half if you want to experience all of the thrills.
If you have little ones and will skip the thrill rides, a half-day is long enough in this park.
These are just highlights of each of the lands. For descriptions of all attractions at Hollywood Studios, visit our mini-website here.
