Their corresponding ambassadors represent each national
showcase. These representatives even go as far as throwing
holidays and festivals as they are being commemorated back
home. Epcot guests are welcome to these global-scale celebrations.
Pavilions
The setup of the land is that the nations are planned by
way of so-called pavilions, each highlighting the art, architecture
and culture of their respective countries. You can
purchase World Showcase tickets online.
Norway
Situated in between Mexico and China, Norway is an insightful
sojourn into Scandinavia. The 58,000 square foot area is designed
to represent the Norwegian towns and cities of Bergen, Oslo,
Alesund and Setesdahl.
The entrance to Norway pavilion is conspicuous with the wooden
structure of Stave Church, styled after Gol Church of Hallingdal,
which was built in around 1250 A.D. Dominating the pavilion
is the Maelstrom boat ride.
Restaurant Akershus allows guests to dine with Disney princesses.
Buy World Showcase tickets and enjoy. There
is also a pastry shop and an outdoor deli counter. Norway
was completed in 1988.
China
China pavilion takes with it all the Oriental splendor of
this nation and all its rich history and culture.
The ornate Chinese Hall of Prayer is replicated here as well
as other landmarks of China.
Its most visually prominent feature is The Temple of Heaven.
This replica houses a Circle-Vision 360 theater, which screens
educational movies like Reflections of China.
Germany
Oozing with all its fairy-tale architecture, the pavilion
calls to mind a conventional German village where the sounds
of Oktoberfest fill the air.
The pavilion hosts for its centerpiece the statue of St.
George. Bavaria is a section in the square dotted with monuments
to St. George. To visit World Showcase Buy Tickets

Meanwhile, the Biergarten is reminiscent of the 16th century
town of Rothenberg.
Italy
“Arrivederci” not yet. The pavilion duplicates
the architectural elements of Venice and the rest of the Italian
bastions. A land of pizza and amorous intellectuals sprouts
on Florida soil.
The Doge's Palace duplicated in the area is as elegantly
Italian as can be. A replica of the Campanile (bell tower)
of St. Mark's Square is even present.
The whole setting is a transfiguration of original Italian
elements like Venetian bridges, gondolas, and colorful barber
poles.
Japan
When the bright red torii gate becomes perceptible,
one knows they are making the pass into a threshold of
brooding geishas and samurais.
Apart from this, guests are quickly drawn to the blue-roofed,
5-story, Goju-no-to pagoda inspired by a shrine built
at Nara in 700 A.D. Do you love to be in Disney
- Buy World Showcase Tickets and be there.
The area is rife with symbolism, such as the complex
use of rocks and water – two elements the Japanese
hold with esteem. |

Morocco
Inspired by the common arrangement of Moroccan cities, the
pavilion is designed to have new city (Ville Nouvelle) and
old city (Medina) sections.
Marrakesh’s famous prayer tower has a replica in the
area. This, the Koutoubia Minaret, overlooks the entrance
to the Morocco pavilion in World Showcase at Epcot.
The centerpiece of the square is an intricately structured
fountain whose fount gushes unto multi-hued tiles. Buy

France
To erect a replica best representative of Gallic sensibilities,
the France pavilion in World Showcase opted to fashion the
pavilion after the prosperous era known as La Belle Epoque
or "the beautiful time", which transpired between
1870 and 1910.
The period drama could not have been more realized. The book
shop, art exhibits, perfume shop, theater, sidewalk cafe,
restaurant, and the busy garden marketplace scenery straight
out of Paris reflects a vigorous time of art and literature,
grand exhibitions, inventions and science, and high-end fashion.
United Kingdom
For a realm whose culture is spread somewhere near universally,
Epcot’s rendition of the United Kingdom exhibits both
the city and rural aspects of the United Kingdom.
The pavilion portrays a pub in a building reflecting a cluster
of periods and different facades. By assimilating a style
recalling culture from the 16th to the 19th centuries, the
area is a concentrated with buildings that evoke Victorian,
London, Yorkshire Manor, Tudor, Georgian, Hyde Park, Regency
and even a Shakespearean cottage design. we offer
heavy discounted tickets World Showcase.
Canada
The Canadian pavilion brings to mind the Rockies, Furriers
and Trappers and Indians.
The most conspicuous tribute to the nation is Hotel du Canada,
patterned after the French Gothic design of the Chateau Laurier
in Ottawa.
Otherwise, there is the lovely Victoria gardens, the Rocky
Mountains, and a refreshing 30-foot waterfall. Its being an
amalgam of borrowed cultures is palpable when guests crosses
paths with such structures as Native Indian villages and the
French-flavored chateau.
Mexico
This is everyone’s opportunity to explore the Aztec
facet of the Americas. Towering over the pavilion horizons,
the Pyramid is a model of the real Temple of Quetzalcoatl
(the god of life) at Teotihuacan.
Justifiably the said god is shown in its likely accoutrements
of large serpent heads.
A gallery of artifacts from various periods of Mexican history
lines the building.
Never forgetting its Hispanic heritage, the pavilion also
hosts a formal portico and then a colonial plaza where one
can experience an evening at a festive marketplace.
United States of America
Old Glory should never be left out of all the action. In
fact, it commands everyone’s attention as the center-most
pavilion in the World Showcase
Located near Italy and Japan, the pavilion’s architecture
is styled English Georgian.
The fashion is very much palpable in the theater that hosts
an audio-animatronic stage show called American Adventure.
You can buy World Showcase tickets online from this
website.
The architecture of the building combines elements from Independence
Hall, Boston's Old State House, Monticello, and Colonial Williamsburg.
The structure is constructed with 110,000 bricks molded, colored
and aged from Georgian clay. The floor meanwhile uses marble
and copper.
Also, the pavilion has landscaped walkways and manicured
gardens.
