One of the largest of the Disney theme parks, at over 300 acres in size.
Name of the park is an acronym for Experimental Prototype Community Of Tomorrow.
Epcot was the second park to open as part of the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, opening its doors in 1981.
A giant man-made lake is surrounded by pavilions representing eleven countries of the World – Canada, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Norway, USA, Morocco, Japan and China.
Each pavilion contains gift shops that sell items from that country – maple syrup in Canada, Haribo gummies in Germany, etc.
Nighttime show is Illuminations. This can be watched from anywhere around the World Showcase Lagoon and features music, fireworks and a giant globe.
Lots of food and drink options – each country pavilion sells alcoholic drinks specific to that country (you go to Germany for beer, Mexico for tequila, France has some great champagne/wine options, etc)
