Attractions
Famed for one of the United States' most popular attractions,
Walt Disney World, Orlando boasts other noteworthy attractions
besides the justifiably iconic Magic Kingdom.
Head a little further into this Floridian city to discover
Universal Studios where its two theme parks, an entertainment
complex and film sets will keep visitors on the edge of their
seats. Visiting during the summer? Wet 'n Wild is a must for
cooling off while Sea World has earned itself repute as one of the
best marine parks in the world for more than 25 years and is not to
be missed.
Florida's second most popular attraction is the Kennedy Space
Centre at nearby Cape Canaveral, where visitors can walk through a
giant model of the new International Space Station, view authentic
rockets and marvel at all the original artefacts from the moon
landing.
The Orlando Museum of Art is a must for lovers of fine arts,
while adrenalin junkies should make a pilgrimage to the NASCAR
Daytona Speedway. For something a little stranger, look no further
than the Orlando Odditorium where exhibits of weird and wonderful
things, amassed over a period of 40 years by explorer Robert
Ripley, can be viewed.
Travellers planning on doing lots of sightseeing might think
about buying an Orland Go Card which grants free entrance to
various attractions as well as provides a full-colour guide book
for as many days sightseeing as you'd like in a three, five or
seven day options. Go Cards are available at the Official Visitor
Centre or Festival Bay Mall.
