EPCOT Center 35th Anniversary Events?

so I saw on twitter someone posted some of the 35 facts about Epcot thing and I had a question for someone who knows, but it was like the building for the Japan attraction is still there but never used for Meet the World. So does anyone know what building is now? and what "Meet the World" was suppose to be about? (and if this is in the wrong thread to talk about sorry)

Meet the world was another Carousel style theater that explained the history of Japan while it was to be for Epcot...They did have it at Tokyo Disneyland..Martin has a great Tribute video of the attraction...

The building is used for storage. Meet the World was installed in Tokyo so you can watch videos on YouTube of what it would have been.

Ooo thank you!! I've only heard of the "Mt Fuji" ride and never this but this seemed cool!

It was to be pretty impressive on the WS Skyline...
