Disney Doodle: Jasmine Visits The Morocco Pavilion at Epcot

In the 1994 film "Aladdin," Jasmine sneaks out of her palace in disguise and heads into a local marketplace to get a taste of freedom. Her outfit and visit to the marketplace inspired artist Ashley Taylor when creating this week's Disney Doodle.

"The Morocco Pavilion is my favorite place to shop in the World Showcase," Ashley said. "My favorite part of this illustration was being able to draw Jasmine in her Marketplace attire!"
