Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow
- a popular Disney attraction in Lake Buenavista, Florida, near Disney World. It opened in 1982. It was originally planned that people would live there as an experiment to create a community of the future, but after Walt Disney's death the idea was dropped. Visitors can see and work the machines of the future. EPCOT displays new ideas in communication, energy and transport and is the most educational of the Disney theme parks.
