United Kingdom (Epcot)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The United Kingdom pavilion is part of the World Showcase within Epcot at the Walt Disney World Resort.
Layout
The United Kingdom Pavilion is designed to look like a typical British village, although it could be argued that it is more stereotypical, with buildings based on different periods of British architecture. It has British gardens (including a hedge maze). The shops sell British items, such as tea, toys, clothing and Beatles merchandise. There is also a Beatles tribute band called "The British Invasion" that performs regularly in the Pavilion. The Rose & Crown Pub and Dining Room serves traditional British food, as well as beer and ale. There is also a Harry Ramsden's restaurant serving Fish and Chips. There is a sport shop selling British sport equipment, including Chelsea FC and Liverpool F.C. shirts.
Throughout the day, characters from British-based Disney features like Mary Poppins, Alice in Wonderland, Winnie the Pooh, and Pirates of the Caribbean appear.
