“Our team created many original pieces that focus on the dynamic movement of water as it travels around the experience,” Riddley wrote. “Graphics like these will guide guests through the cycle of water in fun and engaging ways to tell our story of the vital link we share with water across our planet, and inspire the important role we all share in preserving this life-giving and life-sustaining precious resource.”

Journey of Water will be an outdoor attraction that immerses guests in a lush environment that will bring the global cycle of water to life. It will be located in World Nature, EPCOT’s newest neighborhood that will be dedicated to learned and supporting humanity’s relationship with the planet.
