The Prince Charming Regal Carrousel (formerly Cinderella's Golden Carousel) is a historic carousel attraction within the Magic Kingdom of Walt Disney World in Bay Lake, Florida, United States. It was originally built by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company (PTC) in 1918 and was among the Magic Kingdom's attractions present during its opening day on October 1, 1971. The carousel is the oldest purpose-built amusement ride in the park. Hand-painted scenes from Cinderella can be seen on the top, and organ-based instrumental versions of Disney songs play during each two-minute ride period. Similar carousels with Cinderella themes under different names can be found in Tokyo Disneyland and Hong Kong Disneyland.
