Guardians of Galaxy, Epcot construction photos from the air
There are four major projects currently taking place at Epcot now at Walt Disney World. We were able to find aerial images to give all a look at what’s going on.
Three of the four expansions can be seen below, including the new Guardians of the Galaxy in the location where the Universe of Energy was located; the new space restaurant, in between Mission: Space and Test Track; and the Ratatouille ride at the France Pavilion in the World Showcase area.
We could not find good photos of the new restaurant in the Japan Pavailion.
The Guardians of the Galaxy is being touted that it will be one of the longest indoor roller coasters in the world. Based on the “Guardians of the Galaxy” movie, it will open in 2021 in time for the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney World.
The new Ratatouille ride entrance to the ride will be behind the Eiffel Tower. The attraction is based on the popular Disneyland Paris ride. It is a 4D experience you are shrunk down to the size of Remy. he and his friends are cooking up a delicious meal, but are discovered by Chef Skinner, who chases you through the sights, sounds, and smells of Gusteau’s famous Parisian restaurant.
The new space-themed restaurant will be operated by the Patina Restaurant Group, which operates several other restaurants at Disney World including Tutto Italia and Via Napoli at Epcot and Morimoto Asia at Disney Springs. The restaurant will feel as if it is on a space station and you will have a view from space at every window.
Here’s a look around:
