Disney Facts: The World Showcase

Posted on 16:00 by john mical
Epcot at Disney World is made up of two areas, Future World ( containing many attractions focusing on technological advancements)  and the World Showcase (an area containing pavilions representing 11 countries).

Here's a look at some highlights about the World Showcase:
Japan Pavilion at Epcot
  • World Showcase promenade stretches 1.2 miles and the World Showcase Lagoon spans 40 acres.
  • 11 countries are represented around the World Showcase. From left to right they are, Mexico, Norway, China, Germany, Italy, United States, Japan, Morocco, France, United Kingdom and Canada.
  • At United Kingdom’s Rose & Crown Pub & Dining Room in World Showcase, a specially designed ale warmer can heat your Guinness to 55 degrees, the temperature favored by Brits.
  • 26.2 miles of bratwurst are served every 60 days at the Biergarten restaurant in the Germany pavilion. 
  • The Eiffel Tower replica in the France pavilion is 103 feet tall.
  • The castle in Japan is a replica of the Shirasagi-Jo, a 17th century fortress overlooking the city of Himeji, known as one of the most well-preserved castles in Japan.
  • A Disney crew carried a 300-pound camera up 4,500 steps of the Huangshan Mountain in the Annui Province to film the Circle-Vision 360 film seen in the China pavilion.
