Epcot's World Showcase is centered around a reflective lagoon.
There are eleven countries represented here. This is one of the
more relaxing and scenic areas of Disney World. As far as
"attractions" go, you're not going to find thrill rides but
there are several movies, boat rides and shows that will give
you an overview of the country you're in.
Eating at the World Showcase is not to be missed. Most countries
have both table and counter serve restaurants. It's a wonderful
chance to try a different cuisine. (We strongly recommend making
an Advance Dining Reservation for the table serve venues.)
Epcot hosts two special events. The Fall brings the very popular
"International Food and Wine Festival" while the Spring welcomes
the "International Flower and Garden Festival." The holidays
are especially festive with the "Candlelight Processional" a
highlight of the Christmas season.
The World Showcase is one of the main reasons Epcot got the reputation of not being "kid friendly." That changed when they added "Kidcot" stations in every country's pavilion throughout the park. Your little one can create free crafts at the Kidcot spots (yes, you read that right, something is actually free.) It's made Epcot a "must see" for all ages.
