825 · The Top Ten Things We Love About the Japan Pavilion in EPCOT - From the Archives Konnichiwa, my friend! As this episode is released, I’m on my way to Tokyo to host a panel at Star Wars Celebration about Living Your Star Wars Story in the Disney Parks! So, in the spirit of sushi, samurai, sake, and Star Wars, we're reaching back into the WDW Radio archives for a listener favorite: The Top Ten Things We Love About the Japan Pavilion in EPCOT. No, not the country (although I am heading back soon for our WDW Radio Adventures by Disney trip to Japan!) - but the incredible World Showcase pavilion that captures Japan’s beauty, culture, cuisine, and yes... the gift shops. Originally recorded in 2016 (how was that 9 years ago?!), this episode is a nostalgic journey through one of EPCOT’s most beloved pavilions. From the serene gardens to Mitsukoshi’s Pokémon overload, it’s a celebration of all things Japan... but in the Walt Disney World park. And be sure to follow me on Instagram @LouMongello for content from Star Wars Celebration, Tokyo Disneyland, and DisneySea all week long. Yes... it’s for research. 😉. 🙋🏻‍♀️ What’s YOUR favorite part of the Japan pavilion… and why? 📣 Comment in the WDW Radio Clubhouse or 📞 Call the Voicemail: 407-900-9391 (WDW1) 📬 Subscribe for updates + get my FREE Disney book! 🔗 Connect: Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn 🌐 Explore more: 🌐 WDWRadio.com - Blog & Archives 🎁 WDWRadioNATION - Support & Rewards 📺 WDWRadioLIVE.com - Watch and chat LIVE 📅 Events - Events, cruises, and more! 🌟 LouMongello.com Creator or solopreneur?
