The first park that we visited was the Isle of Berk. Based on Dreamworks’ beloved How to Train Your Dragon movies, Isle of Berk recreates the hometown of protagonist Hiccup. It features the most animatronics out of any Universal park, with dragons scattered across the park. It’s an O-shaped park, with a large body of water in the middle.

I visited Universal's new Orlando theme park, Epic Universe, which has five worlds. I think it's a good value despite not having many rides.

Economic leaders say Orlando has become an unrivaled destination in the global theme park industry, and the debut of Universal’s Epic Universe is adding new momentum — and new pressure — to an already competitive market.
