If you've ever wished you could transport yourself to the wonderful world of the Simpsons, get ready to make that dream a reality. Following its success of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Universal Studios Orlando is now officially building Springfield.
According to Eater, Universal Studios is constructing a
Simpsons world next to the park's ride that currently exists in the show's honor. The surrounding area will look just like Springfield. And fans can chow down on grub that's featured on the show inside replica restaurants.

One highlight will be drinking a cold Duff Beer from Moe's Tavern. The beer was specially brewed for the Springfield park. But that's not the only edible reason to make a stop in Springfield. Fast Food Boulevard will be right there along with the rides. According to a press release, fans "will be able to grab a Krusty-certified meat sandwich at Krusty Burger, snatch the catch of the day at the Frying Dutchman, get a slice at Luigi's Pizza, go nuts for donuts at Lard Lad, enjoy a 'Taco Fresho' with Bumblebee Man and imbibe at Moe's Tavern." In case you're still hungry after a stroll down Fast Food Boulevard, the theme park will also feature a Kwik-E-Mart.
