Asia

Located between Europe and Africa, Asia could contain a China pavilion featuring Mulan, an Indian village like that in Animal Kingdom, an Arabian courtyard featuring Aladdin, and a Japanese pavilion.  Asia should also feature a major roller coaster, either between the China and Japan pavilions or in the Indian village.  Besides the coasters mentioned on the "Thrill Ride" page, another option would be one based on Raya and the Last Dragon.  The “Black Sea” would separate Asia and Europe.

Entering from Europe, the China pavilion would be on the left, and could feature the Circle-Vision movie from Epcot's pavilion.  

 

To the right, adjacent to the central lake, would be the Arabian area.  It could feature several Aladdin themed flat rides like those in DisneySea's Arabian Coast.  Further on to the left would be the Japan pavilion, a scaled down version of the one in Epcot, perhaps featuring Meet the World.  The most southern area would be the India village.  It could feature the old Jungle Book show from Animal Kingdom, along with Jungle Book themed shops and restaurants. 

 

 

South America

When I first worked on this blog, only three Disney Animated features have been set in South America, Saludos Amigos, The Three Caballeros, and The Emperor’s New Groove.  The first two are dated and none were very popular.  However, since then Encanto was released, and that movie could inspire an awesome dark ride similar to Mystic Manor in Hong Kong. 

This area should also contain a major thrill ride, such as a plume ride, where visitors could start in an Inca village and travel down the Amazon.  This could be themed to Emperor's New Groove. 

Another attraction could be a Rainforest themed play area, like the Redwood Creek area at California Adventure.  A large building, similar to the Mexico pavilion in Epcot or the Mermaid Lagoon in DisneySea, could also be located in South America.  The inside would be themed to a Brazilian village at night, with several flat rides themed to Carnivale.  

Lastly, a train station could be located in South America, and "Southern Express" trains could run through Oceania to Africa, and back.  One half of the journey could feature views of the park, while the return trip could run along the very southern edge of the park, through dioramas and/or video projection rooms. 

Africa

Of course, Tarzan and The Lion King would be the featured attractions here, and a raft ride through a jungle would also be appropriate.  Entering this continent from Asia, an Egyptian area would be located to the left, with a “Nile” River running through it, and a Morocco pavilion to the right.  

The Egyptian area could feature a play area where kids could climb over and through "ruins" and dig for "artifacts" in sand boxes, kind of like the Boneyard in Animal Kingdom.  Further to the south the landscape would become more lush, and a central courtyard could look like the Harambe area of Animal Kingdom.  

A show like Festival of the Lion King could be featured here, assuming that the raft ride was themed to Tarzan.  Alternately, the raft ride could be themed to the Lion King, and the old Tarzan show from Animal Kingdom could be featured.  

A train station would also be located in Africa, where guests could catch Southern Express trains to South America.  

Oceania

Entering the southern most continent from South America, guests would pass through a Polynesian village, where a Tailspin attraction might fit in well, or perhaps something themed to Moana, like the new walk through attraction at Epcot.  

 

This region should also feature a major thrill ride, most likely a roller coaster through a volcano, which could act as the main "weenie" of the park.   

To the east of Polynesia would be an area themed to Australia, which could have something based on The Rescuers Down Under. A building designed to look like the Sidney Opera House could hold a simulator ride that allows guests to "fly" over places in Australia like Ayers Rock, the Great Barrier Reef, and the Blue Mountains.  This attraction could use Soarin's ride system or it could be more like DisneySea's Stormrider or the new Pandora ride at Animal Kingdom.  A replica of the Harbor Bridge could connect Oceania to Africa.  An attraction based on Finding Nemo would be a natural for this location as well. 

To the far south of Oceania could be an Antarctica themed attraction, or, more likely, Antarctica could be represented by a diorama on the train.  

Parades and Night time spectaculars

Parades are popular at Disney parks, but I don't see one working in my proposed third park - the themes and the layout don't really support parades.  Instead, the park should hold water pageants based on barges in its central lake.  Tokyo's DisneySea does this in its Mediterranean Harbor, and it seems to work pretty well. 

At night, the central lake could host a fireworks show like Epcot's Illuminations, or something using multiple barges combined with fireworks and other effects.  

 In any event, each of the six continents should have tiered viewing areas surrounding the central lagoon.  

Hotels

One of the great benefits of building a third park would be the opportunity for Disney to construct new hotels that would be able to charge high rates due to their proximity to the new park.  If they could acquire enough of the adjacent property to the Strawberry Field, I could see them adding three or four hotels.  Besides adding revenue, these hotels, if properly themed, could act as buffers to the outside world. 

I'd love to see a Norwegian/northern Europe themed hotel straddling over the entrance to the park the way the Mira Costa in at the front of Tokyo's DisneySea.  The western wing could have English architectural features, while the eastern could be Polish or Russian.

Alternately, they could put a English or North American themed hotel in the northwest corner, and a Russian or Chinese themed hotel in the northeast corner.

In the southwestern corner, they could build a hotel that resembled either the Polynesian Resort at Disneyworld, or the Aulani in Hawaii.  Or it could be a mismash of Polynesian and Latin American influences, perhaps called the Explorer's Lodge.

A hotel similar to WDW's Animal Kingdom Lodge would be ideal for the southeast corner. 

 

Hong Kong

I'd love to see this park layout used as a second park in Hong Kong.  Of course at Hong Kong Disneyland the entrance plaza is located slightly north of east, and Fantasyland is located slightly south of west, so a second park in Hong Kong should have it's entry slightly north of west.  I'd like to see the layout of my park stay roughly the same but shift the entrance to North America.  The entrance street for the park should complement the Main Street of the Disneyland next door, so it could be a colonial theme or maybe modern New York, or perhaps the 1920's LA of California Adventure in Anaheim.   

Another tweak that would make sense with the different entrance location would be to make the size of the mountain attraction in Oceania slightly smaller, and the size of the mountain attraction in Asia slightly larger, so that they act as twin "weenies", one on either side of Africa, which in this layout would be the area farthest away from the entrance.
