Viewing Illumination from FW side of WSL

[woody74]

Just wondering if anyone knows any good spots for viewing Illuminations from the Future world side of World Showcase Lagoon? I've always viewed it from WS. Is it usually pretty crowded from the other side? Are the sight lines bad?

Curious...

There are so many places to view IllumiNations at Epcot's World Showcase
that are wonderful in their own way that its futile to try to list them, so I will.

(The first 4 are nearer to FW.)

• Near the twin gift shops at the entrance to WS from FW
• Norway area
• Mexico, at the outdoor Cantina
• Mexico, bridge to the right of oudoor Cantina (as you face the lagoon.)
• Bridge between UK and France
• Upper level (outside front terrace) of the Matsu No Ma Lounge in Japan
• Italy, near the Gondolas
• UK, the Rose & Crown outdoor dining area (ressies required.)
• UK, just to the left of the Rose & Crown (as you face the lagoon.)
• Many, many more great spots.

Be sure to avoid any tree branches that block your overhead view,
and watch out for any "islands" in the water
that block your view of the "center" of the lagoon.

Best Tip:
Don't stand down-wind of the fireworks.
Their SMOKE will ruin the show.
So, If the wind is blowing into your face as you look towards the Lagoon, you are in the wrong spot.
