Walt Disney Imagineering has shared a new video looking at some of the details of Journey of Water, Inspired by “Moana,” currently under construction at EPCOT.
In the video embedded above or available here, Imagineer Christopher talks about walking the construction site to check on the details of the attraction. He describes Journey of Water as “an exploration trail that allows you to follow the water cycle while also getting to know water itself and its fun, playful personality.”
The walkthrough attraction is made up of water features built into fake rockwork. The rocks are covered in fake plants and moss, and feature some Easter egg carvings.
Guests will enter near a tall section of rock featuring Te Fiti’s swirl. They will encounter Te Fiti herself in the form of a 16-foot-tall statue, featured prominently in the new video.
Journey of Water, Inspired by “Moana” is scheduled to open this fall. It’s visible in this concept art that also features glimpses of the World Celebration gardens and CommuniCore Hall.
Here’s a zoomed-in look at Journey of Water. Te Fiti can be seen at the center, looking over a pool of water. The orb-shaped lanterns hang throughout, and water jumps across pathways to the right.
