Just got back from Disney and Epcot this summer. My favorite pavillion is Germany. I recommend eating at the Biergarten. Great food and great entertainment. Try the German beer and the Bavarian cheesecake.
I've been to Epcot in 1997 and to be honest I must say that I didn't like it. It's a completely disneyfied kitschy and tacky plastic version from an American point of view, most Germans I know who have been there didn't like it at all and almost felt insulted by this. Go to Germany and see the real thing, the same goes to all the other countries that are so poorly displayed at Epcot. And there's more to Germany than just Bavaria. Get away from these stereotypes as most Germans are NOT Bavarian.
@nordstern1981 I understand what you are saying, to each his own. But imagine if they had a theme park in Germany with an American Pavillion. What theme would they use? Western (the cowboy)? New England? Mid-west? The South? Native-American theme? Hawaiian theme? California theme? I'm not defending Disney because they are what they are but they only have so much space for these pavillions. But I agree with you. It's best to go and see the real thing -- Germany! I enjoyed all of the pavillions.
@nordstern1981 maybe when you get money you can build a park and than put in it an exhibit that shows every single aspect of Germany ( it would be interesting to me as my ancestors came from Germany), but until then I am sure disney has done the best they can and put in their pavilion what part of the German nation they thought would appeal to the most people who come to their parks. as far as going to Germany most people can't even afford disney tickets, let alone a vacation around the world.
"Disney has done the best they can and put in their pavilion what part of the German nation they thought would appeal to the most people who come to their parks". True, maybe. But still highly stereotyped.
Sorry, I didn't want to offend anyone - I just don't like it. My opinion.
Germany is my favorite place to go when in EPCOT. The Biergarten Restaurant was the best dining I've ever had at a Disney eatery. The price is well worth it for such an authentic buffet. Ich liebe der EPCOT Deutschland.
I love the statue of St. George slaying the dragon. What an epic icon. I'm just disappointed that Disney dropped the plans for building the Rhine River Cruise...
OH WOW! I went to Disneyworld 3 times and stayed on the grounds of Epcot all 3 times. Beach Club, the best resort! I am going again this year, (almost 4 years in a row). I love Epcot! What song is this? I didn't see the cookoo clocks, I am buying one this year!
These pavilions are amazing and authentic! Germany is one of my favorite

I'm so happy they've got both Deutschland and Canada!
I cannot wait, we're driving from Toronto to Orlando, and my Oma cannot wait to see what they've got for Germany.
