Orlando

One of the most-visited cities in the entire of the Sunshine State, Orlando booms with theme parks and amusements, rollercoasters and rides like few destinations on earth. Forever vying for the top spot are the sprawling attractions of Universal Studios and Disney’s Magic Kingdom, the respective homes of the all-new Harry Potter Wizarding World and the iconic Cinderella Castle alike. But O-Town isn’t just about getting the heart racing on the rides. It’s also a city placed neatly on the northern fringes of the Everglades, graced with beautiful parks and botanic gardens, some truly fascinating museums, oodles of luxury hotels, shimmering skyscrapers and plenty of urban lakes to boot. That means it’s a well-rounded stopover on any tour of the American South, offering would-be travelers a fusion of fun and relaxation, cultural interest, history and natural beauty.
