Things to do in Orlando

Orlando welcomes visitors from all over the world, and most come for Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando and SeaWorld. But the region is also a serious business destination: the Orange County Convention Center hosts major trade shows year-round, and the area has deep roots in simulation and defense technology, healthcare, and hospitality. Lake Nona's medical and research campus, the brick streets of Winter Park and the attractions corridor along International Drive each draw a different kind of traveler, from researchers to families on spring break.

  1. 01

    Walt Disney World Resort

    Four theme parks, Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom, plus two water parks and the Disney Springs dining and shopping district spread across a resort larger than many cities.

  2. 02

    Universal Orlando Resort

    Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure and the newer Epic Universe park deliver The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, big thrill rides and immersive themed lands, with CityWalk for dining after dark.

  3. 03

    Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex

    East on the Space Coast, see Space Shuttle Atlantis, a Saturn V moon rocket and the Rocket Garden, and on the right day watch a launch from nearby pads.

  4. 04

    Winter Park

    Just north of downtown, this leafy city offers Park Avenue's boutiques and cafes, the Scenic Boat Tour through its chain of lakes and the Morse Museum's renowned Tiffany glass collection.

    Marine-life exhibits and animal presentations share the park with some of the area's most intense roller coasters, including Mako and Pipeline, with the Aquatica water park next door.
