In Part 1 of this 2-part episode of Imagine That, Amanda & Kevin explore the origins of EPCOT's Mexico Pavilion, tracing its roots from early World Showcase concepts and World's Fair influences to the Imagineers, artists, and cultural consultants who helped bring it to life.

Along the way, we'll uncover abandoned concepts, negotiations with the Mexican government, the search for authenticity, and the contributions of legendary Disney figures, including X. Atencio, Eddie Martinez, Ray Aragon, and a young Joe Rohde.
