The photo above was taken at the Italian pavilion at Epcot's World Showcase. Although Italy does not have the traditional ride or movie that the other countries have it is very picturesque. The beautiful plaza is a replica of the Doge's Palace and St. Mark's Campanile and across the way you can look over a 'canal' and see the gondolas moored to posts.
Around the plaza are shops selling everything from clothing and perfume to wines, sweets and chocolates and handmade masks. There is a fountain with a statue of Neptune, where you can pose for photos or just sit in the shade to rest your legs.
Recently the L'Originale Alfredo di Roma Ristorante was closed and a new restaurant has was opened in its stead called, Tutto Italia. Haven't been to the new restaurant but I'll let you know how it is when I try it!
Overall the Italian pavilion is a great place to just sit, have a canoli or gelato and enjoy the view.
