What's you can do at Disney world "EPCOT"

Although Walt Disney wanted Epcot to be a real experimental community, like the Biosphere, what eventually opened 16 years after his death was more akin to a World's Fair, with corporate-sponsored rides and a mini-United Nations of pavilions representing a few of the world's countries. Epcot's focal point, the gorgeous orb of Spaceship Earth, houses one of the last attractions remaining from the 1982 opening (a history of communications). The Future World area, which surrounds Spaceship Earth, purports to praise scientific advances but is really a collection of family-friendly thrills such as the launch simulator Mission:Space and the flying simulator Soarin'. World Showcase, gathered on a 1.3-mile footpath encircling the World Showcase Lagoon, is staffed by people native to the country of their respective pavilions. Naturally, the American pavilion takes pride of place at the center. Authentic souvenirs and food are available at each stop. So is alcohol, which isn't sold at the Magic Kingdom.
