/* Pavilion History */
Although nothing would come of these earlier plans, in the late 1980s/early 1990s, Imagineers created designs for a new area in the United Kingdom called The Enchanted Forest. This area would have housed topiaries of scenes from Mary Poppins, Robin Hood, <ref name= "UKMARY"> http://www.omniluxe.net/wyw/ukef02conceptsA-M.jpg </ref> Alice in Wonderland and Winnie the Pooh <ref name= "UKALICE"/>. While inside The Enchanted Forest guests would also have meet and greet opportunities. Although not an attraction per say, The Enchanted Forest would also have included the "Door-Knob Tunnel" <ref name= "UKALICE"> http://www.omniluxe.net/wyw/ukef03conceptsN-AA.jpg </ref>, "Cheshire Cat Maze" <ref name= "UKALICE"/>, and "Prince John's Castle Interactive Play Area". Finally, the area would have also housed facades of the English Parliament and Big Ben. The end of the area would be Mousterpiece Theatre, where entertainment would be found <ref name= "UKALICE"/>.
