Layout

The Mexico Pavilion resembles a Mesoamerican pyramid with steps leading to entrance doors. Visitors enter through a gallery display of Mexican artwork, the "Animales Fantásticos" art collection. The central indoor area of the pavilion is themed as an outdoor twilight-lit Mexican village and marketplace, Plaza de los Amigos. At the edge of the plaza, a restaurant, San Ángel Inn Restaurante, overlooks an indoor lagoon with a themed backdrop of another pyramid and a smoldering volcano in the distance with themed lighting and smoke effects. To the side of the plaza, a boarding area leads to a boat ride, Gran Fiesta Tour Starring The Three Caballeros which commences in the indoor lagoon area.

Due to the location and height of the outdoor structure of the pavilion, the nightly fireworks show "IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth" is controlled from a small technical office atop the building.

gollark: Also, it probably wouldn't inherit whatever magic slot-splitting behavior you have now.
gollark: 1. I'm lazy (though yes, admittedly, you probably are)2. It'd be slower to manually find the slot(s) with free space.
gollark: How about a table of slots moved into?
gollark: Can it? Huh.
gollark: Specific use case: Wyvern internally uses a quick method to search its index for free space - `#items < inventories[name].size()` on each inventory - manually searching slots would be slow and kind of annoying, so currently the index for a chest is just entirely updated whenever an item is inserted, which is slow.
