Any advice on this part of WS? I'm a junkie thanks to Moulin Rouge

Lovely pavillion. See the film, eat at the pastry shop, and catch the entertainment.

Enough said.

Our favorite pavillion.

The pastries are to die for!! When dh and I go through the line, we want one of everything and we usually end up getting way too much for just the two of us to eat! LOL!

Epcot is my fav too! The film is a great place to cool off and re-energize. Every time we go we have to watch it again. The pastries are a given. Also, watch out for Belle and Beast! Have fun!!!

The pastries and the cheese plate are to die for!!!

Jules & I are obsessed with the film. We saw it EVERYDAY on our trip in December!

The music is fantastic!!

There is a crepe stand in France also--those are yummy, too

My husband and I always stop there for a glass of champagne and sit on the benches in front of the fountain.

It is a cool shady spot.

However, I was bummed they don't have a wine sampler anymore. They did last year and that was fun. If you like to sample different wines they had a tasting at Italy.

On our last trip, my 3-yr-old DD watched IllumiNations for the first time from France as we ate crepes next to the crepe stand. It was an absolutely wonderful time!

The pastry shop is also great.

DEH3rd - LOL!

I believe around the France Pavilion is where the living statues appear from time to time. They are alot of fun!!

We wouldn't have a country today if it wasn't for France's help during the Revolution.

As jeleebeene said, the Living Statues are really funny . . . we catch them on every trip.

If you're looking for them on the park schedule, I think they're listed under "Imaginum" . . . the name got changed somewhere along the line.

We usually catch them just outside the French restaurant.

The Living Statue may be in Italy, now- we saw her there on our last trip.

We saw the living statues in Italy in December & again in February.

BOOOOOOOO!!!! Disney is not about making fun of cultures. Especially in Epcot!!! LOL Sorry, half french (blush)

The music is so good! I used one of the pieces, the last one, in my wedding. I get goose bumps every time I see the film. Everything I've eaten there has been excellent!

 

[Planogirl]

This pavilion is a must for us during each trip. It's a beautiful stop and the bakery is super! I like to snack around World Showcase once each trip and this bakery is one of the highlights.

My daughters love to get their make-up done over in the little shop there (and my almost 15 yr old says France has the cutest male CM's LOL). Also as other posters have said....the pastry shop is a must!!!
