USA - FLORIDA - ORLANDO: THE EPICENTER FOR FUN AND EXCITEMENT  It’s no surprise that Orlando is one of the world’s leading vacation destinations – whether it’s a white-knuckled thrill ride, a skydive encounter, a soothing massage, a round of golf, a mega shopping junket or a moving theater performance. Rarely does a destination offer such a myriad of spectacular and diverse choices for every age and interest.Orlando is the epicenter of fun and excitement, as more than 95 attractions keep visitors coming back for more. Take the mix of legendary theme parks, spectacular museums, world-class entertainment and blockbuster rides and attractions, and it would take about 67 eight-hour days to visit all of the entertaining offerings in Orlando.
With more than 2,000 lakes, springs and rivers for swimming, boating, waterskiing and fishing; 168 golf courses; 800 tennis courts and 21 fitness trails for biking, walking and blading, few destinations in the world come close to rivaling Orlando’s incredible year-round outdoor activities and pastimes. And, with an average year-round temperature of 72.4 F (22 C), who can blame them? Add to the offerings getting up close and personal with a bounty of original Florida inhabitants like alligators, manatees, osprey, deer and eagles. Golf aficionados are in their element in Orlando thanks to the area’s great lineup of world-class golf. Whether playing a championship course, learning from the pros or cheering on a favorite from the gallery, Orlando’s got the ticket to the best links around. With 168 spectacular golf courses located within a 45-minute drive of downtown, golfers can try their hand at an array of challenging and diverse courses designed by such legends as Jack Nicklaus, Greg Norman, Tom Watson and Rees Jones. From Gucci bags and Tiffany diamonds to Ocean Pacific flip flops and secondhand treasures – plus everything in between – Orlando has boldly emerged as an international shopping leader. And, with more than 52 million square feet (4.6 million square meters) of retail space, including nine regional shopping malls, all tastes and budgets are satisfied. Orlando has an impressive lineup of world-class performing arts. The Orlando Opera, Orlando Ballet, Orlando-UCF Shakespeare Festival, Bach Festival Society, The Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra, SunTrust Broadway in Orlando series and several professional and community theater companies are just a few of the area’s entertainment options.
