And let’s not forget TRON Lightcycle / Run, which boasts an original soundtrack by Joseph Trapanese, known for his work with Daft Punk on the Grammy-nominated **TRON: Legacy** soundtrack.

Over at EPCOT, the park’s name is an acronym for Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, a vision by Walt Disney himself. The iconic Spaceship Earth is a geodesic sphere that wows guests with its 11,324 aluminum tiles. For those who relish horticultural delights, the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival spans a mile and a half of breathtaking gardens and topiaries.
