Wow, this looks fantastic! And always a good thing to see a fountain not disappear.

I actually really like this. Great make over or really good photographer.

It is a great detail and looks lovely! Now let's get the restaurants open again....and maybe add an attraction!

the only thig at epcot I dont consider a plus at the moment is Harmonious, but Im still waiting to see how spectacular the show is at night. Everything else thats happening, Im on board with. The Morocco Pavilion makeover, the entrance makeover, the new gelataria, GotG Coaster, Space 220, Play Pavilion, Popcorn Stand, New eastern communicore renovation, western communicore tear down/interactive water garden replacement, center spine makeover and SSE renovation....I like all of it!

Your wife works at the pavilion. Ask her.

I’m confused as to what is going on with the pavilion. Did I miss something a few pages back? Will the restaurants be fully revamped/replaced? Or is this just some minor cosmetic changes lead by WDI?

So far, entirely cosmetic, including a revamp of the plaza, the bathrooms, the pavement, the signage, and the, uh, "Instagram spot". The restaurants mostly remain shuttered, but that's the case throughout much of the World Showcase, so it remains unclear how they'll ultimately handle them.

Disney is now in charge of the entire pavilion.

They've updated some things (bathrooms, fountain, Café, some shops) and left others untouched (Marrakesh -- as far as we know). Disney hasn't announced anything of what they're going to do. We just know the things that have been worked on because they're done and open to the public.

Of course, staffing restaurants right now is an issue. The CPs are coming back, but not the international CMs yet.

It looks wonderful! Glad to see this hidden gem of a pavilion get some TLC

I believe one of the restaurants will be open as a booth for the Food and Wine festival as well at some point.

Had dinner at spice road last night and it was very good! Only feedback would be to have cloth napkins instead of paper. I hate paper napkins at table service restaurants, Rose & Crown does this too and it drives me nuts.

Fights over napkins are a "thing" at our house.

I buy plain white paper napkins to keep in the holder on the table. Hubby gets takeout for lunch a lot and ends up with pockets full of various fast-food paper napkins...AND PUTS THEM IN THE HOLDER...so now there's a mish-mash of Dunkins, McD's, Burger King, etc.

Sorry...makes my head explode!
