Meeting the Princesses in Epcot

Published March 22, 2020 by mn1055

Epcot has 11 countries located around the World Showcase lake. Many princesses are located in their home countries. Meeting the princesses in their home country is a different experience compared to meeting them in Magic Kingdom. They are often in more “casual” attire when found in Epcot. Magic Kingdom is where you’ll see the princesses in their ball gowns. Also, some princesses can only be found in Epcot and not at Magic Kingdom.

My personal preference is to walk the countries counter-clockwise starting with Canada. Now there are no princesses or even characters in Canada but once you hit the United Kingdom you can meet 3 characters. Although these are not technically princesses they are still exciting! Alice, Mary Poppins, and Winnie the Pooh are all located in the United Kingdom. I have some of the best memories meeting Alice here! Winnie the Pooh and Mary Poppins can be met in Magic Kingdom but this is the only place to see Alice.

Next stop is France. Here you can meet Aurora and Belle. Belle is often reading by the water waiting to meet guests. Aurora is located under a gazebo (this is a nice character to meet in the summer months because the line is normally under shade). These princesses can be met in Magic Kingdom occasionally, but not always.

The next country you visit is Morocco. Princess Jasmine is tucked away down the alley behind all of the shops. She is also a great princess to meet in the summer because of the shaded line area and you meet her inside! Jasmine can be found in Magic Kingdom with Aladdin.

Japan, America, and Italy do not have princesses or even characters but they do offer great food!

Germany is the home of Snow White. Known for their Oktoberfest, Germany offers great beer which you can see many parents enjoying while waiting to meet Snow White! She is in Magic Kingdom, but not every day.

After walking through the outpost that is jungle themed, you enter China, home of Mulan. If you’re lucky, she is a very fun princess to meet. She loves to see how tough the young children are and is very interactive with them! Mulan is not seen in Magic Kingdom.

Norway has had some new additions over the past 5 years. Since the release of Frozen, you can now find Elsa and Anna in their own little building right before leaving Norway. They also have their own boat ride in Norway that is very exciting! Elsa and Anna don’t make an appearance in Magic Kingdom .

Lastly Donald Duck is in Mexico! He is dressed in a fun colored poncho and sombrero. Although he can be met in almost all of the parks, this is the only spot where you will see Donald Duck wearing this outfit.
