Puebla Esperanza model After several years of hints, concept art, and general descriptions, Disney finally dropped the major details of the land at August’s D23 Ultimate fan event, and this is EVERYTHING that’s been confirmed so far! The heart of the land will be the fictional South American village of Pueblo Esperanza. @bioreconstruct Pueblo Esperanza will be headlined by an Encanto attraction titled Antonio’s Fiesta de Encanto, a themed ride-through experience where guests will enter Madrigal Casita and join Antonio, who has just received his special gift: the ability to communicate with animals. ©Disney The ride will have NO height requirement, will feature the film’s original voice cast returning, and will be home to 50 different animal Animatronics. ©@bioreconstruct Pueblo Esperanza’s other high-profile attraction will be an Indiana Jones attraction replacing the former DINOSAUR ride. ©Disney Indiana Jones and the Myth of the Jade Serpent will be set in the 1950’s in a South American temple where Indy finds a passageway that leads to the Mayan underworld. ©@bioreconstruct Once you get sucked into the portal to the underworld, you’re in an all-out chase to escape before time runs out, dealing with bats, scorpions, fire, and of course, SNAKES, including a GIANT one. LOOK HOW BIG! On top of all that, for the first time, Harrison Ford’s likeness will be used for the Indiana Jones Animatronic!
