The Mexico Pavilion at Epcot is a festive marketplace set inside a replica of a MesoAmerican pyramid.  The pyramid sits high in the skyline of the World Showcase and as you enter the pyramid, you find yourself in a gallery of artifacts from different periods of Mexican history.  As you stroll through the formal portico, you will find you have entered an authentic colorful marketplace set in the evening sky.
