I love the arcades, I find them lovely and relaxing and a great place to sit and watch the world go by! They almost feel like secret corridors and I always feel there is a nice atmostphere in them, quieter than the street! I also like that you can enter the shops and restraunts through back entrances of the arcades, not to mention you can go here for shelter from the rain!
We used this quite a lot, as it was much less busy than Main Street, and gave a nice respite from the music which was a bit much after a while.
Although not as cosy as the discovery arcade it is a great alternative to main street and still allows you to buy items from the connecting boutiques. As other people have said it’s also a much dryer alternative to main street along with discovery arcade. The arcade also has an exit near Walt’s restaurant and so if it’s raining the arcade can be used to keep that little bit dryer.
An alternative way of walking from one end of Main Street to the other is down Liberty Arcade which runs along behind the stores on Main Street. Also great if the weather isn’t very good as it is all undercover. Access to the shops is just as easy through the back doors. Always plenty to look at on your way.
Same experience as the Discovery arcade.
“There are 2 ways to use this “attraction”. The first one is just use it as a dry walkthrough into the Parc. The second one is the one i love personally. Make it as if you are at a museum. Look at all the the little details the imagineers put into this passage. It is as if you are being a part of history.”
