Epcot Gardens - Reflections of China

Epcot Garden

Diving into my archives to make a post before the weekend gets over. This was taken in Christmas 2010 in Epcot Gardens, Florida. The theme park has a section dedicated to different cultural influences from United States, Canada, Mexico, China, Japan, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Norway and Morocco.

In the China Pavilion, visitors can experience the art, architecture and traditions of China, one of the oldest civilizations in the world. Visitors can relax in serene gardens with tranquil reflecting ponds in the Temple of Heaven. Or they can discover authentic tomb sculptures from ancient China dating back 2,000 years.

    1. Not as much as I would like. It's definitely worth a visit. Florida has lots of good places to visit like Disney Magic Kingdom, Universal Studios, Island of Adventure, Epcot, Everglades, beautiful golden beaches, the Keys...

  6. I have been by there a few times, but never thought about photographing that scene - now I won't have to, as you have done it for me. Great photo!

    Hope to see more in future.
