Herb LeibacherWhen people think about Christmas decorations at Walt Disney World, they usually think about the Magic Kingdom first. The garland on the Victorian buildings of Main Street and the shimmering Cinderella Castle Dream Lights are amazing.
Others think about the Osborne Lights at Disney’s Hollywood Studios – a dancing and magical spectacle that is a “must see” for many families.
Many folks don’t think about taking a trip to Epcot to check out Christmas decorations; that’s too bad. While Epcot’s decorations aren’t as famous as those at the Magic Kingdom or as over-the-top as those at the Studios, they are still lots of fun.
Disney puts up a few decorations in both Future World and World Showcase. Of course, the decorations throughout World Showcase match the countries in which they are located.
Let’s take a look at some of the Christmas decorations around Epcot:
