How is it possible to travel to Italy without leaving the United States? You might be surprised to hear that a little slice of Italy exists right here at the Italy Pavilion in Epcot! As you stroll through the pavilion, you’ll notice the impressive attention to detail, from the towering replica of St. Mark’s Campanile to the charming gondolas gliding along the canals. The Italy Pavilion isn’t just a feast for the eyes; it’s a culinary journey waiting to be savored. Step into Via Napoli, and be transported to the heart of Naples with its three wood-burning ovens, each named after an active Italian volcano: Etna, Vesuvio, and Stromboli. These ovens, reaching a scorching 700 degrees, bake pizzas to perfection in just under two minutes. But the secret to their authentic Neapolitan flavor runs deeper than the ovens. The mozzarella is flown in straight from Italy, the San Marzano tomatoes burst with flavor, and the dough, ah, the dough! It’s made with water carefully selected for its alkaline levels, similar to the water found in Naples, ensuring a taste that transports you straight to Italy. At the Italy Pavilion, you’ll find yourself immersed in the heart of Italian culture.
