I said Norway, because it has my favorite ride (in World Showcase that is) and resturant (again, in World Showcase). But I have not been to all the pavilions, and I plan to devote 3 hours to only World Showcase on my trip in April. I've been in/ eaten in Mexico, I've also eaten in Italy, France, Japan, and Morocco.

A little off topic, but I'm very baffled at how a person can visit WDW as many times as you have according to your signature, without having visited every pavillion in WS. :shrug:

Not meaning any offence, as we all do WDW differently, and I'm sure you've enjoyed all your trips, but I just can't imagine visiting that many times and not having gone into all the WS pavillions.

Back on topic, I really hate trying to pick favorites! :lol:

Part of me enjoys WS because the buildings are so pretty and it's all part of WDW, but the other part of me finds the place incredibly boring. Just walk into a building, look through a store full of useless junk that I'm not gonna buy, maybe try a little something to eat, then leave...not really much in most of those countries to keep me there for more than 5 or 10 minutes. So my favorites would be between the countries that actually have something to do, like a movie or ride.

I don't enjoy Mexico quite as much anymore because of that sucktified version of a ride that I used to really enjoy before they cartoonized it. I enjoy Norway for the ride and their great desserts. And I enjoyed Canada for the film, the nice scenery and the hot blonde that was working the counter last year. :D I enjoyed the France film, so I guess my favorite would be one of those 4.

p.s. While the blonde in Canada was incredibly hot, that's not one of the reasons why I like the Canada pavillion. If it was, I'd make sure to include Germany for the hot blonde that waited our table back in 2004... :D

My favorite is Japan.
I lived in Japan for 3 years as a child.
The sights and smells in the Japan Pavillion bring back some wonderful memories for me.

Japan, Mexico, and Morocco are my favorites...I love just getting lost in all three of them. (Voted for Japan...the gardens, the over-the-top friendly CMs, beautiful culture, sushi, and candy art! Can't wait to get back soon!)

Just like practically everyone else has said, I love Mexico for the atmosphere and the "outdoors at night" vibe. And I love Japan, mainly because I love Japanese food and architecture; I really enjoy the department store.
 
Definately Japan for me. Their "country" at EPCOT has actually sparked quite an interest in me to learn more about Japan. Can't wait to go back and see which country sparks my next learning interest!!

Naturally, THE USA! But I love going to all of them. My favorite shop would definitely be in China and France! But we like to go to all of them.

It's really tough to pick one...I love little things from each of them:

Mexico: Outdoors at night...yeah, 'nuff said.

Norway: Very good looking CM's, haha.

China: Orange Chicken and the acrobats.

Germany: Oktoberfest.

Italy: Sergio and the wine shop.

American Adventure: Voices of Liberty, Candlelight in December, and Golden Dreams.

Morocco: Such detail in the architecture/tiles, and the CMs are very nice.

Japan: YakitoriHouse (YUMMY Chicken Teriyaki) and the taffy puller/shaper.

France: 1664 beer and the shops.

United Kingdom: The shops and Rose & Crown.

Canada: Off Kilter and the waterfall.

I have to say I love Mexico too, I think just because it's all in one area and you feel like you go to another place once you walk inside, and the market place and music just hit you. I also really like the Japan pavillion, the buildings are beautiful and I heart plum wine. :slurp:

My husband really like the UK one since it has the best beer and the buildings and it's a great place to people watch. and as far as looks he says the Morrocan area has a great theme too it.

Japan.

I had a hard time choosing between this and Mexico. I like both because of the shops and the food!!

I love the drummers in Japan.

I'm having a tough time with this one. Initially I want to say Mexico because I love the pavilion and the food. However, the between the singers and the film in the American Adventure, I cannot help but cry (good tears). But, this past summer my family fell in love with the Biergarten in Germany. The performances there were fun and lively. So, its an even tie between the three. Each summer it seems to be that I fall in love with a new country. So, we'll see which one it will be this summer :)

I would have to say Norway or Mexico. Mexico is amazing inside. The night time feel is very romantic. Even though I have never walked the streets of Mexico at night, its kind of how you would have imagined it.
Norway is just a lot of fun, and happiness. Kind of fits the Disney feeling.
 
My favorite has to be Norway. It has my favorite ride in the WS. I used to like Mexico. I love the atmosphere and how it is always night time but I am not to sure about the new ride. I do love one that doesnt seem to be on this list, Germany. Its has the best candy shop in the WS (other then the woman in Japan.)

I chose Italy as my favorite, since I am 100% Italian, so we always stop there and buy souveniers every trip. This year we're going to actually eat there, since we haven't yet. I love all the detail they put into this pavilion, it's like you are really there.

Mexico is also my favorite. It is always the first country we visit in WS. As soon as you walk through the doors, the cool air hits ya right in the face and the scent just reminds me "Wow I'm really here!!!"
I think that Mexico has the most interesting gift shop...the cool, colorful, dark, atmosphere is just awesome. We usually always go right onto Grande Fiesta, then walk around for a while. I've always wanted to eat at the restaurant...I just love the set up.
