What is Journey of Water?
Journey of Water is designed as a beautiful garden filled with amazing water features. You can walk through it and interact with the water in many ways. It's like stepping into the world of Moana and learning about water at the same time.
Interactive Water Fun
This attraction lets you play with water in unique ways. You might see water jump, splash, or even follow your movements. It's a hands-on experience that shows how water moves and changes. Imagine guiding a stream or making a fountain dance!
The Story of Water
The main idea behind Journey of Water is to teach you about the water cycle. This is how water moves all around our planet, from the sky to the ground and back again. The attraction helps you understand how important water is for all living things.
The Water Cycle Explained
The water cycle is a natural process that keeps water moving on Earth. It has a few main steps:
- Evaporation: Water turns into vapor and goes up into the sky.
- Condensation: Water vapor forms clouds in the sky.
- Precipitation: Water falls back to Earth as rain, snow, or hail.
- Collection: Water gathers in rivers, lakes, and oceans.
Journey of Water helps you see these steps in a fun, interactive way.
Moana's Connection
The attraction is inspired by the movie Moana, where the ocean is a living character. You'll find elements from the film throughout the garden. One special feature is a huge plant sculpture, called a topiary, of Te Fiti. She is a goddess from the movie who brings life to the islands.
Te Fiti's Topiary
Te Fiti is a central part of the Journey of Water. In the movie, she is a powerful island goddess. Her topiary is a large, green sculpture made from plants. It reminds us of nature's beauty and the importance of protecting our world.
Where is it Located?
Journey of Water is found in the World Nature area of Epcot. This part of the park focuses on understanding and protecting our natural world. The attraction replaced a section of the former Innoventions area. It leads down towards another popular attraction, The Seas with Nemo & Friends.
