On a quick look, both of these slides look like Fantasyland in Disneyland. However, upon closer examination they are slides of Walt Disney World's Fantasyland. Looking at the slides it is amazing the imagineers did not do something different and try at the time to make Fantasyland in Florida more of the medieval town setting seen at Disneyland with the 1983 reconstruction. Still I guess the flat shields and blocky buildings worked in Disneyland and money was still tight for the construction of Walt Disney World. I know they have made some changes especially with It's A Small World in Florida, but they could do more and make some more changes to make Fantasyland a little bit more magical. The slides are from 1980.

It does seem a shame that so many corners were cut at WDW. That's not to say that it isn't wonderful, but the opportunity to start anew was sometimes wasted due to budget. As you pointed out!
