Images: The enchantment of Google Earth

On Thursday, Disney and Google announced an initiative that brings Walt Disney World into Google Earth. That means that most of the Manhattan-size group of theme parks is now available to view in 3D in the latest version of Google Earth. The partnership allows users to look up-close at the seemingly endless rides, attractions, shops, lakes, and other features of the various parks that make up Disney World.

This is the view in Google Earth of Cinderella Castle, the signature structure of both Disney World and Disneyland.
