Disney’s River Country is Turning Green
In 1976, Walt Disney World opened River Country, the first water park at Disney World, but in 2001 the park was suddenly shuttered for good. The park sat abandoned for 17 years before any maintenance was done to the area and in 2016 the green and grimy 330,000-gallon pool was finally drained, but the rest of the park is still completely as it was left in 2001.
