Editorial Review for Epcot – by Citysearch Editors
Overview
Disney's Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow never quite fulfilled its promise as the future of civilization. However, it did find a way to offer patrons a much-welcomed respite from thrill rides by, of all things, educating the masses with innovative, technological attractions and plenty of humor and kitsch.
The Experience
The park is divided into two sections, Future World and World Showcase. Topics like health, nature and imagination are explored with an eye toward education and a heart for fun. World Showcase houses several pavilions, each a marvel of elaborate, international decor and multicultural traditions. In addition, there are newer, thrilling hands-on adventures such as Mission: SPACE, which allow guest to experience the exhiliration of launching into space.

Attempting to adequately summarize a theme park in 150 words or less is hard, but a few hints for those visiting... First, check out the new soaring ride when the park opens to avoid the long lines and then get a fast pass for a return flight an hour and a half later. In the meantime, take a behind the scenes tour of The Land that starts hourly at 9:30 AM. It costs $20 for adults and $10 for children (there is an AAA discount...) but you get an hour-long tour with your personal guide of the facilities and the research they do with pests and plants. You see much more than The Land ride and learn a few things. It was our highlight of our day at Epcot and a relaxing experience!
