Theme parks and more
Orlando is probably most famous for its stunning theme parks; it is actually known as "The Theme Park Capital of the World", so you will definitely find all the fun you need right there. But the city is also nicknamed "The City Beautiful", so there is definitely a lot more to Orlando than just theme parks and fun.
