All about Orlando
Home to no less than seven of the world’s most popular theme parks, Orlando has earned its title of Theme Park Capital of the World. Whether you like your thrills on dry land or on the water, with cartoon characters or international exploration as a theme, or built around roller coasters or childhood toys, there is something here for everyone, both young and young at heart.
This sunny destination in central Florida has long been a top choice for vacationers in search of year-round warm weather and endless opportunities for family entertainment, but this metropolitan city has so much more to offer beyond the theme park gates. Explore a little off the beaten path and you’ll find thrumming nightlife, a burgeoning arts scene, great shopping of both the mega-outlet and independent boutique varieties, and a hip, up-and-coming restaurant district. Start your days with a fresh-squeezed juice from a trendy Milk District cafe, and end them watching the sunset over Lake Eola. For further ventures into nature, the area’s wetlands of lakes and swamps offer all you’ll need, and no worries about the scaly crocodiles or alligators showing up — Orlando is generally gator-free.
What are the top things to do in Orlando?

Lake Eola sits in the centre of downtown Orlando like a sapphire sparkling in the sunlight. A walking path traces the circumference of the lake, making it a pretty spot to stretch your legs and take in the shimmering reflection of the downtown skyline on the water.

Milk District
This up-and-coming neighbourhood has become a foodie destination thanks to its Tasty Takeover food truck nights every Tuesday. When not snacking on birria tacos and artisanal doughnuts, take in some live music, hit up quirky independent shops, or design your own cafe and juice bar crawl.
