Walt Disney World Epcot - Mexico

Pros: Margaritas, good Illuminations viewing, fun atmosphere
Cons: More expensive than the real Mexico

In a little place called Walt Disney World, is the theme park, Epcot. Within Epcot is a man-made lake and around that lake is the World Showcase. Made up of a multitude of countries, including Mexico, the World Showcase is ...

Pros: Great theming, represents Mexico's diverse heritage well, good food, rarely crowded
Cons: Some will find the boat ride boring

Mexico is one of the countries represented in the World Showcase at Epcot Center. The ‘countries’ are located around a central lagoon. Each pavilion represents a different country, and contains a variety of shops, entertainment, and ...

Pros: excellent theming, pyramid architecture, lovely slow boat ride, authentic feeling street market, romantic restaurant
Cons: some of the extraneous bits weren't as impressive

One of my goals in life is to visit the ruins of the Mayan temples in Chichen Itza and other surrounding Yucatan spots. I've always been fascinated by mythology of any sort, but I've gravitated more toward the so-called "secondary" mythological systems ...

Pros: Probably the best ambiance I have ever seen, and the service was wonderful
Cons: Food is not all it is cracked up to be

Upon a recent visit to Epcot, my companion and myself decided to make reservations for dinner in Mexico. Actually, we made reservations for 4:00 p.m. and in Disney time, it is lunch. We both LOVE Mexican food and have visited the Mexican Pavilion before...

Pros: Nice atmosphere for the restaurant
Cons: Poor food at the restaurant, lousy new attraction, claustrophobic pavilion with little space

As of April 2007, the peaceful boat ride housed at Epcot's Mexico Pavilion entitled El Rio del Tiempo is no more. In its place is the more kid-friendly, less cultural boat ride known as Gran Fiesta Tour Starring The Three Caballeros. ...

Pros: beautiful, good food, pleasant ride
Cons: -

Having never been outside the United States, visiting World Showcase is the closest I’ve been to Mexico. Since I was a kid, this has been one of my favorite pavilions at Epcot. I’m not sure if it is the ride or just the atmosphere,...

Pros: History is accurate. It is fun and educational.
Cons: Kids will not want to spend very much time there.

If your Walt Disney World Plans, include a trip to Epcot, try a stop at Mexico. Mexico is in the World Showcase section of Epcot. It is the first Country on the right.

Mexico, at Epcot is like a miniature city,complete with a marketplace, a...

Pros: great atmosphere
Cons: none

That is what you might be saying after visiting the Mexican pavillion at Epcot. This place is so real, you might forget for a minute you are in Florida.
From the minute you enter the building, you feel you are at an outside market place. It is...

Pros: Best of Disney
Cons: none

One of the best rides in Disney is hidden where you might not find it if you don't know where to look. Go to Mexico even if you can't see every country. Go to the San Angel restaurant - I'm not saying it would command twenty dollars or so for dinner...

Pros: Educational ride, Fun marketplace, Great food.
Cons: The restaurant, while wonderful, is pricey!

When you visit Disney's little tribute to Mexico, you enter an Aztec temple-shaped building. Inside you'll see historical artifacts, mostly artwork and pottery. Walk a bit further, and you'll enter an exciting Mexican marketplace. There you can buy...

Pros: Building looks great, inside and out; Excellent dining atmosphere
Cons: El Rio Del Tiempo is a bit hokey, outdated

There's something the Mexican Pavilion that other pavilions have failed to capture. Unlike the others, this one is primarily indoors, set inside the facade of a large Mayan pyramid. Inside is a lovely recreation of the Mexican nightlife, complete with...

Pros: boat ride, feels like mexico inside,shopping, good stuff to eat
Cons: NONE

Out of all of the countries in Epcot, Mexico is the best! From the outside you see this big building. Once you walk into the building, you have entered a New World. You are quickly swooped into Mexico. The inside looks like a downtown street in Mexico at...

Pros: Great food, nice boat ride w/ short wait
Cons: Counter-service restaurant gets very busy, can be hard to find a seat

The Mexican pavillion in Epcot's World Showcase is, in my opinion, one of the best pavillions that Epcot has to offer. It's got everything - two great restaurants (one dine-in, one counter-service), a unique shopping experience, Mexican artifacts in a...

Pros: Educational experience, one of few rides at world showcase
Cons: If you don't like shopping or a lame boat ride it's not for you

The Mexico pavilion is the first pavilion that you will encounter if you go left entering the World Showcase in EPCOT at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. The architecture of the Mexico pavilion is unmistakable. The main building is a pyramid ...

Pros: short-lived cool ambience
Cons: no vegetarian options, demeaning ride

There wasn't much for us to do in Mexico as all they offer is a single ride and two restaurants with absolutely no vegetarian options, which really is quite amazing as most Mexican restaurants employ beans and rice like they were going out of style. So, ...
