When you get to Anandapur in Disney’s Animal Kingdom you may
decide you want to stick around a bit longer or take an expedition into the
jungles of the kingdom. To extend and enhance your stay in Asia you’re going to
need a travel company that knows the area, right? As it just so happens, Kshana
Travel Company is conveniently located just across the way from Yak & Yeti Local
Foods and next door to the Royal Anandapur Tea Company.
Okay, you caught me! You can’t stay overnight in Anandapur,
and the expeditions are as simply as walking down a trail or moving through a
queue, but there is a piece of the Kshana Travel Company that ties the land
together. Kshana is actually the home to the land’s DVC kiosk and the Kids
Discovery Club, mounted on the wall, however, is a map of Anandapur. Does that
map look familiar?
You can see a blueprint copy of the map, which shows the
Kingdom of Anandapur, in the queue of Kali River Rapids. The map shows up again
further down the line, in the last room just as you make a decent to the raft
loading area. This time, however, we are in the cartographers office where he
is actually in the process of creating the map.
While there may be a few changes between the drafting and
final renditions, such as title location and an additional close up section of
the map, it is clear that these maps are one in the same. Anandapur’s land to
water ration may change a bit in the rainy season, but it’s nice to see that
someone loves the area enough to want to capture it, and all its river bends on paper!

What do you mean "You can’t stay overnight in Anandapur" I know there's a hotel for trekkers over the restrooms near where the former Tea trains load for the Journey to the Forbidden mountain, and I know I've heard the voices of trekkers coming out of the rooms above that restroom discussing their trek, you don't expect me to think someone made up those conversations and put in a speaker system so that I could overhear them do you?
