So, Epcot is 100% my favorite park. It doesn’t have the best rides. its not the biggest park. Its the idea and the theming that is so great. From walking around future world or even around the world. Epcot has a little something for everyone in the family. Epcot is a full day park so here is an article from the Dis.com to tell you a little more about Epcot.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Epcot, the Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, opened in 1982. It was conceived by Walt Disney to “take its cue from the new ideas and new technologies that are now emerging from the creative centers of American industry.”<\/p>\n
Epcot consists of two themed areas, Future World\u00a0and World ShowCase\u00a0Future World features attractions that focus on energy, communication, the land and our environment, the ocean, imagination, transportation and space exploration.<\/p>\n
In the very front of the park is the iconic\u00a0Spaceship Earth<\/a>. Located inside the iconic “golf ball”, Spaceship Earth is a slow-moving attractions that tells the history of communication and where communication may be headed in the future.<\/p>\n Over in\u00a0The Land Pavilion<\/a>, you can find\u00a0Soarin’ Around\u00a0the World<\/a>\u00a0which simulates the experience of flying over landmarks around the globe! Timon, Pumba and Simba are your hosts at the\u00a0Circle of Life<\/a>\u00a0film and the\u00a0Living With The Land<\/a>\u00a0boat ride takes you on a tour of greenhouses and fish-production.<\/p>\n The\u00a0Seas with Nemo and Friends<\/a>\u00a0is a fun-filled trip into the underwater world of Nemo. The action centers around the 5.7 million gallon aquarium that is home to thousands of fish including sharks, sea turtles and dolphins. This pavilion features all of the characters from\u00a0Finding Nemo<\/em>. You can ride on Clam-Mobiles, have fun with the hands-on activities, and you don’t want to miss the interactive\u00a0Turtle Talk with Crush<\/a>\u00a0show.<\/p>\n At the Imagination Pavilion you can take a fun-filled look at the senses on your\u00a0Journey Into Imagination With Figment<\/a>. It’s rarely crowded and is a perfect ride for the days when the park is busy and you need a break. Also located in the Pavilion is the\u00a0Disney & Pixar Short Films Festival<\/a>\u00a0which previews 3 delightful short films.<\/p>\n Test Track<\/a>\u00a0takes you on an unforgettable ride. Riders get to design their own custom concept vehicle, then test it out on the track in a six-passenger SimCar. This is a great attraction but it does have a well deserved reputation for intermittent delays.<\/p>\n Mission: SPACE<\/a>\u00a0simulates a realistic launch into space as you and your crew pilot your capsule to Mars. There are two versions, so choose wisely. If you have the slightest inclination towards motion sickness, pick the tamer option.<\/p>\n Innoventions<\/a>\u00a0was once a “mish-mosh” of sorts with different hands-on activities featuring the latest technology. Innoventions is currently under an extended refurbishment and there’s not a lot left in either of the East or West buildings, save for a few meet and greets in the Character Spot locations. Innoventions is still a great way to escape from the central Florida heat and humidity.<\/p>\n For many years, Epcot was considered an ‘adult’ park. Disney worked hard to overcome this reputation and most have discovered that kids can have a blast visiting Epcot, including the ‘boring’ countries.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n One of the best things that was done was to introduce\u00a0Kidcot<\/a>\u00a0stations in World Showcase.\u00a0 Kids can create a free (yes, you read that right!) souvenir to take home\u00a0with them. The more spots they visit, the\u00a0more they can add to their one-of-a-kind creation. Take advantage of the Kidcot stops and think twice about some of the movies at several of the countries. If your child balks at one of them, they don’t get better at the others. All isn’t lost though; in Mexico, there is the\u00a0Gran Fiesta Tour<\/a>, which is a nice, slow boat ride that kids will definitely like. And of course in Norway,\u00a0Frozen Ever After<\/a>\u00a0is an extremely popular attraction with kids.<\/p>\n
