Top 10 Themed Attraction Chains Worldwide (2006)

I was doing some research for my daughter who is doing a history project on Walt Disney. I was trying to find out how many visitors Disney has world wide in a year. I found a list for the top 10 companies. Disney attracts more visitors than the next 4 companies combined! I was also surprised that Universal was 3rd. I didn't realize just how far behind Universal was from Disney.
