Mexican Street

The Old Mexico area includes the Flash Flood effect village and is frequently used on screen.
Situated between the Flash Flood and Six Points Texas the area can be easily redressed to look completely different on screen.

 

Stunt Show

Following the June 2008 Backlot Fire, which destroyed New York Street & the old King Kong attraction, there was a stunt show at Mexican Street to keep tour guests entertained. 

Seen on Screen: Universal Studios Hollywood [Mexico]
