Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana, a new walkthrough attraction in Disney World’s Epcot theme park, debuted on Monday.<\/p>\n
Guests are invited to make their way through a walking trail, where they can engage with water in a number of ways, from playing musical “rain harps” to creating an ocean wave.<\/p>\n
The attraction was inspired by the 2016 film “Moana.” On the walking trail, the character Te Fiti is featured prominently, acting as a protector of water. Other familiar characters are carved into rock formations along the way.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Guests can meet Moana in a new space just across from the attraction.<\/p>\n
The Moana attraction is part of a years-long updating of Epcot, located in the World Nature neighborhood. The World Celebration neighborhood is expected to open in December.<\/p>\n
The opening comes during the ongoing celebration of 100 years of Disney, with Epcot at its heart in Disney World. The celebration will run through Dec. 31.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Also in celebration of the 100th aniversary, Mickey and Minnie will don special platinum attire at their meet-and-greets in the Imagination pavilion. And each night, the park’s icon, Spaceship Earth, will light up with a colorful display while the Disney100 anthem plays.<\/p>\n
