Directions from Shades of Green to Disney's Polynesian Resort
Shades of Green is located within walking distance of Disney's Polynesian Resort. It's about a ten or fifteen minute walk. From the Poly you can take the monorail to the Magic Kingdom, the Transportation and Ticket Center (to transfer to the EPCOT monorail or WDW busses to other destinations), or visit other Magic Kingdom Resorts.
Below is a map overview of the route from Shades of Green (off to the lower left) to the Polynesian Great Ceremonial House. Once on the Polynesian grounds you'll come to a four way intersection and there are two routes that you can take. The route straight ahead takes you through the resort and to the edge of Bay Lake then through the rear area of the Great Ceremonial House. The other route goes off to your right and parallels the monorail track to the front entrance of the Great Ceremonial House.
In either case you need to get to the rear right corner of the Great Ceremonial House's lobby on the first floor. There you'll find stairs to the second floor (an elevator is located to the right facing the stairs. Once on the second floor proceed to the front of the building and the monorail station.
