World Showcase


     Hello everyone how are you doing? This time I would like to show you World Showcase. 


 



World Showcase is in EPCOT and there are 11 different nations. For example: Canada, UK, France, Morocco, Japan, USA, Italy, Germany, China, Norway and Mexico. You can enjoy and look around attractions, restaurants and live entertainments. One of the unique and coolest points in World Showcase is hosted by each of the nation’s cast members therefore you can ask them questions about that land! They can’t wait share with you! I would like to introduce you each countries area.



Canada area, there is Hotel du Canada. It is centerpiece building in that area and this building built based on Canada’s old hotel Chateau Laurier in Ottawa. There is restaurant called 
O Canada, it is most expensive restaurant in the World Showcase.

   



UK area, there are a lot of The Beatles goods in side shops. There is no attraction in this area but you can enjoy entertainment and dining. Rose and Crown Dining Room which is traditional pub, people can eat Fish & Chips and variety of beers.


   



France area, this is my brother’s favorite area! There is fountain at entrance. You can relax, looking around buildings and chatting. And L'Artisan des Glaces which is ice cream shop and you can get delicious ice cream (Of course, it is French ice cream!)

   



   



Morocco area, there is Koutoubia Minaret of Marrakesh which building is 12th century’s prayer tower (mosque). Also you can have Mediterranean dine. By the way, when I met Morocco area’s cast, he could speak Japanese so I was very surprised!

   



Japan area, when you enter this area, you can see Horyuji Temple first because it is centerpiece building in Japan area. There is Mitshukoshi Department Store where you can get Japanese goods, snacks, drink and even bath and facial products too! We dined at Tokyo Dining restaurant and we ate Japanese foods like tempra and sushi!

   


   



USA area, you can see many USA flag around the area. There is attraction called The American Adventure that is show and you can learn American history and previous USA presidents too!

   



Italy area, there is St. Mark's Square in Italian it called Piazza San Marco. It is replica of the original campanile in Venice. You can enjoy authentic Italian foods like pasta and pizza!

   



Germany area, there are 2 unique shops (In my opinion!). First is Karamelle-Kuche which is sweets shops like caramel popcorn, caramel apple, strawberries marshmallow. When you enter this shop, you can smell very sweet caramel! I’ll get hungry! Second is Der Teddy bar where you can get cute toys! People sell some snacks and drink like pretzel and beer on the street too!

    



China area, Building is pretty fancy and gala looks! You can see the Temple of Heaven in Beijing in the entrance gate.

    



Norway area, there used to be attraction Maelstorm which is a boat ride but it will change to Frozen’s attraction because Frozen is based on Norway’s story. I’m little bit sad old attraction closed but if you like Frozen, you should go to that! 

    


    



Mexico area, you can notice pre-Columbian pyramid in the first entrance gate. As you walk through to inside, you can see Plaza de Los Amigos which is pretty dark in side, but you can find some precious interiors.

    



        Which area do you want to go??!!


       I will introduce you to my No 3 attraction on next blog!!
