A look at Orlando: The City Beautiful



Orlando, the place where dreams come true. Where you can meet Mickey, travel around the world, go behind-the-scenes, take a safari, play with dolphins and discover ancient worlds. But, what about the city of Orlando itself? Have you ever noticed that most of the theme parks and attractions are located in the outskirts of the city? Then, you have to see these photos that we took inside Orlando. It is indeed the city beautiful.
Of course, we didn't visit the whole place, but we went to Lake Eola, the famous residence of the Orlando fountain. Enjoy the views!"


Look at the swans across the lake (both fake and real):



These big building are very nice, as they are new and particularly high:


This is THE Orlando Fountain! It was down many months last year, but it was finally fixed by......
Disney Imagineers. They do everything!:





The Swan! No wait. The Cygnus:




The small Theater (if I'm not mistaken, it's the Walt Disney Theater... Please, tell us if you know the name):


More shots of this great fountain:

The CFNews 13 building:



And the sign that welcomes us to the city beautiful:


Thanks for viewing, and if you have time, consider a visit to this great city during your next trip!

  4. Thanks for the nice comments, Bigfoots (and Francisco, for the explanation!)
    That's right, Bigfoots, Cygnus ("Cigno" in Italian) is the same thing as "Swan".
