The American Adventure is made up of one large building and an outdoor amphitheater. The pavilion's main structure took inspiration from buildings in Williamsburg, Virginia, Independence Hall in Philadelphia, the Old State House in Boston, and Thomas Jefferson's Monticello. In order to see the American Adventure attraction, guests must pass through the pavilion's main indoor entrance. Here, they find themselves in a colonial lobby centered around a large rotunda. The main rotunda is about 35 high and it features 12 large columns <ref name= "Jack"/>. Around the room guests are surrounded by inspirational quotes that correspond to various pieces of hung artwork. On the far side of the lobby, guests can tour the American Heritage Gallery which houses various exhibits. 15 minutes prior to showings of the American Adventure attraction, guests are treated to an a cappella performance by the Voices of Liberty in the pavilion's rotunda.
On the second floor of the American Adventure pavilion (which guests must pass through on their way to see the [[American Adventure attractionAttraction)]], the Hall of Flags can be found. Here, 44 flags that have represented parts of the United States during its history can be seen. These flags include, colonial flags, revolutionary war flags, territorial flags, and even flags that belonged to the European countries who once colonized what is today the United States. As previously mentioned, the second floor of the pavilion also holds the American Adventure theater, where the pavilion's attraction is located.
The main entrance to the American Adventure pavilion is flanked on the left by the [[Liberty Inn]] (a counter service restaurant), and on the right by Heritage Manor Gifts (a gift ship). Across from the pavilion's main building, guests can find the America Gardens Theatre, where live entertainment can often be found.
