Central Florida has the reputation of being a theme park only area. And that can’t be further than the truth. Yes, we have Disney World, Universal, SeaWorld and even Gatorland and Medieval Times, but there is more than that, so mucho more.
One of the not so hidden treasures is the city of Winter Park. Located near downtown Orlando, Altamonte and Maitland, Winter Park is a town not to be missed. Any vacation to Orlando should include it on its itinerary.
