What should Disney build between Canada and the United Kingdom in EPCOT?

**mickey** · 08-24-2004

So, the big area that was the home of the millennium village is available. What should Disney build there?

joseph3947 · 08-24-2004

I think either Australia or Spain would fit in just nice. Joe

Whatever happened to plans for a Spain Pavillion modelled after Seville?

What about a Russia Pavillion based on Moscow? Or India? Australia?

Rides should ONLY be added to Epcot in Future World or incorporated into a country.

The World Pavillion desperately needs new blood.

I agree with another land. Spain, Australia and Switzerland would be good choices but I am leaning towards Australia/New Zealand. With the recent popularity of the Lord of the Rings movies, I think people are interested in finding out more about the country in which those movies were filmed. The locations were breathtaking. Wouldn't mind some of that Swiss chocolate though.

I think Australia would be awesome--think of the potential rides!

noahsark45331 · 08-24-2004

I would love to see Switzerland or Russia.

leeleelew · 08-24-2004

I don't think it should be Switzerland. There are already so many European countries. I vote for Australia/NZ or Russia.

pbharris4 · 08-24-2004

A new land would be great! I think Austraila, Russia, a country from the Middle East or a country from South America would be a nice addition. I think they should add something else for small kids in Epcot as well (in Future World).

australia came to mind and new zealand sounds like a good idea, too, because of lord of the rings. i would love to meet a CM with an australian accent. g'day mate!

delmarjohn · 08-25-2004

my choice would be RUSSIA ...why ,becvause that aprt of the world is not represented

delmarjohn · 08-25-2004

you know ...I just thought about it again...TEXAS

I would love to see an Ireland pavilion! Although I must admit that Russia and/or Australia would be great choices, also.

In a VERY limited fashion, Ireland, Scotland and Wales are already represented in the U.K. Pavillion.

INDIA!!!!

Although I suppose "Asia" in AK does that to some extent. It would be great to see the theme more deeply explored.

Indonesia encompasses some incredibly beautiful parts of the world, --or so I hear ! (Bali, part of New Guinea, Java, to name a few). Buddhas in the jungle, you know?

It would be nice to see something less Euro-centric. Morocco already represents the Arab world of Northern Africa, but there are so many choices from other parts of Africa. The Coca-Cola and trinket stand doesn't quite cut it!

Portugal is my suggestion. Then we could have some restaurants that would have some of my delicious portuguese food. Yummy
