Orlando Short Story

Orlando: Tour Guide

Orlando can sometimes be little shy. You can get caught up in the isolated constructions of frames and theme park rides all too easily, with Disney or Universal Orlando. If you find yourself doing this you can completely forget about downtown and the main city itself. It brings beautiful green neighbourhoods and a rich field of arts and museums which you can spend hours at. It also holds some fantastic nature preserves and a world-famous American cuisine. Downtown Orlando is for the slower paced lot of you and avoids the manic crowds of the theme parks and quick rides. You can enjoy the theme parks all you like and pack some adrenalin in, but also take the time to visit downtown and you can decide which one you favour. If you are glued to the coasters try coming down for a day for a more relaxed gentler side of things. You may be surprised how much you enjoy it and believe it or not, sometimes a break from the rides can make you enjoy them more as a result.

Top Attractions:

Epcot is a theme park south west of downtown Orlando. Just like most theme parks throughout Orlando, it is operated by Disney. The park opened in 1982 and is 305 acres in size. It is often referred to as the permanents world fair. It is made up of two sections divided up into Future world and world showcase themed to 11 world nations. The world showcase section dedicates each part to a specific country. Enter into the ‘pavilion’ and feel as though you have teleported to another city and culture. Each one contains architecture, streetscapes and landscapes themed to the country accordingly. Some of them contain rides shows and interactions making you dive even deeper into what it would feel like in the country. There are a number of special events throughout the year that the venue hosts and is worth visiting them if you come at the right time of year.
