If you’ve ever come around the name Epcot and wondered what it stood for, you’re not alone.
However, we are here to help you with that!
Epcot is an abbreviation for the phrase “Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow.” Walt Disney had planned it
as a city with about 20,000 people and wanted it to be an experimentation ground for technology and city
planning.
Unfortunately, it never came to pass. Therefore, and for now, enjoy the other Disneyland rides
and the awesome Disneyland hotels and do not worry too much about Epcot.
8. Buildings Only Appear Larger

appear to be larger than they are, but they are not. The creators rely on something called forced perspective to
sell that illusion to your eyes.
However, don’t let this information affect your enjoyment of the best homage that has ever
been done to the different Disney cartoons. Also, enjoy the Disneyland fireworks and a walk through the Disney
world Castle without worrying about forced perspective.

Green.”This is in addition to more than 20,000 different colors. It is a light green that is favored by most
painters that work inside Disneyland.
Therefore, make sure that you take note of this shade of color next time you are about to
try your favorite Disneyland ride. Also, make sure to note whether you notice this shade of green of any of the
old Disney cartoons or the new Disney cartoons or the Disney cartoon movies.
