IG Gateway-show Me!

[happily single]

I have always heard of the International Gateway but I do not think I have ever seen it, let alone used it! In crossing things off my Disney Bucket List I would like to this this.

Can anyone post pics of what it looks like and tell me how to enter through it?

I'm sure Robo has a map but in WS, when crossing the bridge from England to France there is a fork in the road. Left takes you to France, right takes you to the IG. The. Once you're out of the park straight takes you to Yacht/beach club and left takes you to the boardwalk area (and if you keep going all the way to HS).

There are also friendship boats right outside the exit that will take you to all those places too.

For entering I do everything I just said backwards.

You would enter through it if staying at or coming from the Boardwalk, Yacht Club or Beach Club, Swan/Dolphin, or Hollywood Studios. It is just another, smaller entrance. Nothing special.

Robo posted a map or two in the other thread about the IG.

Yep. You can't miss it if you go straight from UK instead of turning to France. Walk out the entrance and you can walk around the lake and check out the Boardwalk area
You can also exit HS, get on the boat and take it to Epcot. That takes you in the IG entrance

I haven't figured out how to post photos but if you do a Google image search of International Gateway Epcot, there are loads of photos of how it looks. This is a good one from Kenny the Pirate's page... it appears to have been taken from the bridge taking you from France to the UK. The entrance is between here and where Alice and Mary Poppins usually meet, by the tea gardens in the UK.
