snow white grotto is located on the east side of the sleeping beauty castle or cinderella castle. the grotto includes statues of snow white, the seven dwarfs, and a few woodland creatures. snow white is standing at the top of a cascading waterfall. there is a bridge and a walkway in front of the waterfall as well as a wishing well, the proceeds of which go to local children's charities. the statues were donated anonymously and walt disney was determined to incorporate them into the park. the only problem was that whoever made the statues made snow white the same size as the dwarves, which she is not. walt disney imagineer john hench used the optical trick of forced perspective to make the statues work. he put snow white at the top of the waterfall with a disney-made small deer and put the dwarfs close to ground-level, making snow white to appear further away, and thus smaller. one rumor as to the origin of the statues is that they were "a gift from an italian sculptor that had never seen the film, but owned a set of soaps in the form of the princess and the dwarfs. unfortunately, snow white was the same size as the dwarfs in the soap set, so the sculptor made her that way." the song "i'm wishing" was also re-recorded and added to the grotto inside the wishing well in 1991 by adriana caselotti, who was the original voice of snow white from the 1937 production.

a popular version of snow white is the 1937 american animated film "snow white and the seven dwarfs" by walt disney. disney's variation of snow white gave the dwarfs names and included a singing snow white. the disney film also is the only version in which snow white and her prince meet before she bites the apple; in fact, it is this meeting that sets the plot in motion. instead of her lungs and liver, as written in the original, the huntsman is asked by the queen to bring back snow white’s heart. while the heart is mentioned, it is never shown in the box. snow white is much more mature (about 14). and she is discovered by the dwarfs after "cleaning" the house, not vandalizing it. furthermore, in the disney movie the evil queen tries only once to kill snow white (by a poisoned apple) and fails (this was likely to save time). she then dies by falling down a cliff and being crushed by a boulder, after the dwarfs had chased her through the forest. in the original, the queen is forced to dance to death.
