Walking around the parks in WDW can be very tiring,
very often you'll just want to sit down somewhere to have a rest. Here
is a list of places, some quiet, some not, where you can sit back &
watch the world go by. Bear in mind that the attractions & shows
listed may require you to stand in a queue or waiting area first.

"A nice place
to just get out of the heat and you're at EPCOT, go to the American
Adventure. Now I personally love this show but some find it, less then
appealing. This is however air-conditioned which is a plus and it is
30 min. so then you could, now I stress could, take a nap."

go at dusk)". Rachelle
"Any benches along the Disney Boardwalk."
"One of my favorite resting spots is at the

Take a round trip on the monorail.
"At MGM Studios, we absolutely LOVE sitting
on any bench and watching the street performers.... we could do that
all day.........they are so highly entertaining.......as we sit and
relax...... Also, in Fort Wilderness, at Crockett's Tavern, which is
connected to Pioneer Hall (Hoop Dee Doo Revue).......we love to get
a big cold drink from Crockett's Tavern and take it outside and sit
in rockers on the huge wrap-around porch and just watch the people and
a few critters..... the peacocks are gorgeous and can be quite entertaining
too.......super relaxing...... It's also very relaxing to 'cruise' around
Fort Wilderness in the golf carts.......a little pricey, but we love
it........ Just adding my thoughts............ Warm Regards............

choice!" Dean
"Downtown Disney on the West Side waterside benches next to Bongo's
Restaurant."
