Venezuela Pavilion

The Venezuela Pavilion was a proposed pavilion that bid for Epcot's World Showcase Pavilion themed after a modern-day Venezuela. It was one of the pavilions that was going to be made, but the idea remained scrapped.
==History==
The Venezuela Pavilion was one of the pavilions that was close to being fully constructed for Epcot's World Showcase. This pavilion was to be split into two major sections: one half which would have featured a modern-themed courtyard showcasing restaurants and shops themed after modern Venezuela. The other side would have showcased a natural wonder and history of what Venezuela was like before it was colonized by the Spaniards. The second section would have featured the pavilion's main attraction - a suspended dark ride that would have used a transportation similar to the present-day Skyliner that would have taken guests on a historical journey through the past years of Venezuela. The ride would have also featured indoor and outdoor sections which would have moved vertically throughout the attraction.
Compared to most other pavilions, the Venezuela Pavilion was to be designed around modern architecture seen in modern Venezuela, as most World Showcase pavilions showcase a historical look of their respective countries they are themed after as well as modern architecture. In addition to this, this pavilion would have also featured several additions to the park such as a whole new culture to be represented, although the exact reasons for this cancelation of this entertainment remain unknown, likely due to a lack of sponsor in the early days of plans of developing Epcot. Several other pavilions were planned shortly before Epcot opened in a plan to attract a sponsor. However, several were ultimately scrapped, leaving Epcot remaining without a South American country pavilion around the time.
