Magic Kingdom Photo Spots: 5 Top Picture Locations

Filed Under: BLOG, Disney Tagged With: disney world photo locations, magic kingdom photos, magic kingdom picture spots, Magic kingdom selfies

One of the more charming aspects of Disney parks is that the built environments are so picturesque and transportive.  No matter how many times you experience them, they always carry that same magic that is so hard to discover in the real world.  It’s hard to imagine taking a bad photo anywhere in the Magic Kingdom.  However, some locations translate better than others. The next time you take your camera to Disney World have it ready when you get to these five Magic Kingdom photo spots.

Where is the best place to take a pic at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom?? Find out here now!

The Top 5 Magic Kingdom Photo Spots

5 Top Picture Locations at the Magic Kingdom

Main Street Train Depot

Before you go anywhere else there is a perfect family photo opportunity as soon as you enter Town Square. The train depot at Main Street is iconic and makes for an excellent backdrop whether you plan on taking the Walt Disney World Railroad or not.  The reason this is absolutely one of the best Magic Kingdom photo spots is that this is the gateway to the worlds of fantasy that lie ahead.  Nikon suggests using a wide-angle lens when you take your family photo here.

Tiki Statues

Speaking of Nikon, they have staked out official picture spots around the park.  One of the Magic Kingdom photo spots they include on their map is the Tiki States in Adventureland.  These guys make a unique backdrop in the heart of the tropical jungle surroundings.  The location is marked by a sign so you can’t miss it.

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Also on the official Nikon sponsored list of Magic Kingdom photo spots is Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.  This attraction looms over a sprawling frontier wilderness environment that translates very well whether you are capturing a selfie for Instagram, or a candid photo of a loved one having the time of their life.  This is a rather large area and there are many opportunities and angles for great photos.  However, as an official Nikon selection, this location also has a sign that shows you exactly how to frame the perfect shot.

Tomorrowland Corridor

As Magic Kingdom photo spots go, few are as dynamic and multifaceted as the Tomorrowland Corridor.  Time of day has a huge impact on the overall character and you can take gorgeous photos day or night.  The busy and aesthetically complex corridor makes a fun backdrop in the daylight, but when it lights up at night, it demands central focus.  Try the water with alien rock formations nearby for a tranquil, yet otherworldly vibe, and the #purplewall as well.

Cinderella Castle

Hard to believe this is not an official Nikon picture spot.  Perhaps it’s because there is no one way to shoot the international icon.  Cinderella Castle can even technically be photographed from well outside the park, due to some creative imagineering.  Shots of the castle work great from any angle and it’s a fun place for a family photo, where you can have a professional photographer help.  They will take a picture with your camera for free.  This is also a great spot to get a low angle shot of your youngster as they beam with excitement and anticipation over the day’s adventures.

    And you always have such awesome photos from Disney too! Thanks for this scoop–saving it for our trip next year 🙂

      Aw, thank you, my friend and cannot wait for your trip next year, too now 🙂

    Great photo spots! I sometimes see those Nikon signs but usually I just snap away at whatever, there are so many spots that I love! We did the purple wall last time!

      Dara, I am a total sucker for the Nikon spots as I don’t technically bring any other camera than my iPhone with me during my visits. Since I have the annual pass, I am entitled to Memory Maker with my pass. So, to me, I use every last inch of Photo Pass that I can with that. But loved seeing your awesome photos you have taken yourself from your past trips, too 🙂

    I don’t think I’ve ever known someone who loves Disney as much as you do. I think it is so cool that you are passing that tradition down to your girls. May you always find happiness in the World of Disney, Janine!

      March 14, 2019 at 9:41 am

      Aw, thank you so much, Bill! I really just love Disney World so much and you are right my kids seem to feed off my adoration for the house the mouse built as they can never seem to get enough of it either! Happy Thursday, my friend now 🙂

    You guys are the cutest! I would love to visit. For now I will enjoy the trip vicariously through you 🙂

      Aw, you can definitely live through me and I am always happy to share what I can on Disney here with you, too 🙂

    I’m so embarrassed that we only do two of these. Now I have a new checklist for next year and I simply can’t wait!

    • Janine says

      March 14, 2019 at 3:08 pm

      Aw, I know you will get there and do these few you haven’t. And when you do it will be amazing 🙂

    I love those tiki statues. I’m sitting here thinking I wish I could airlift those home to use in our church’s VBS this summer… I’m trying to craft something just like those:) You have some great photos, Janine, which will certainly bring you many happy memories in the future. Good to know where to go to get the best shot!

    • Janine says

      March 18, 2019 at 2:45 pm

      Aw, thanks Seana and honestly I just love taking pics in Disney. Really they are the best photo memories and enjoy looking back at them, as well as sharing them always here, too 🙂

    Each time you go to Disney, it looks like y’all have a GRAND time! Hehe. And you’re already a great photographer. 🙂
    You going again soon?
    In any case, I hope you have a wonderful week ahead and I hope it’s starting to warm up where you are.

    • Janine says

      March 18, 2019 at 2:46 pm

      Aw, thanks Cyndi and ironically enough I just booked a flight as I am going solo for the first time ever only for 3 days/2 nights with the travel agency I work with. But so very excited and cannot wait to share more here soon. That said, slowly warming up here and hoping it is also warming up in your neck of the woods, too!! xoxo <3

    So, do you have Disney pics framed all over your house? I’m betting you must!! Those look like the perfect places for such great photos to capture the joy in those memorable moments, Janine!
