A Closer Look At EPCOT’s Morocco Pavilion



Morocco Pavilion EPCOT

We’re continuing our voyage “around the world” through EPCOT’s World Showcase, which gives guests the chance to experience the culture, heritage, history, and cuisine of 11 different countries.

EPCOT’s Morocco Pavilion

Today we’re taking a closer look at the Morocco Pavilion. The expert artistry and design details throughout will make you feel as if you have traveled to Casablanca, Fez and Marrakesh.

When you first enter the pavilion, you will immediately notice the towering reproduction of the Koutoubia Mosque in Marrakesh. Mosaic tileworks, paintings, lighting fixtures and fountains throughout the pavilion offer authentic details with unparalleled craftsmanship.
