Downtown Orlando
From Interstate-4, it's a skyline of offices, government buildings, and banks. Look closer. Downtown Orlando is a scenic blend of commercial, recreation and residential areas. The architecture, sculptures, dining, and entertainment scenes pack a punch for the size.
Downtown Orlando is a foodie's dream with its ethnic cuisine, hip spots, food trucks, and vegan joints. The ViMi (Virginia/Mills) district has numerous authentic Vietnamese restaurants. Thornton Park is a gem with its brick-lined streets, dog-friendly parks, wine bar at Dexter's, and Hue's Disco Brunch.
Are you not entertained? Orlando has Shakespeare, movies, opera, ballet, concerts, improv, basketball, art galleries, museums, and the Orlando Science Center. Local tradition Nickel Beer on Church Street is the most (adult) fun to be had on a Wednesday night.
All over Downtown Orlando, you'll find Taxis and Pedicabs for quick transport. LYNX Central Station can cheaply get you around greater Orlando and the LYMMO bus makes 21 stops around downtown, free of charge. Downtown Orlando is not as sprawling as Manhattan or Miami so is actually walkable. You can even rent a Swan-boat around the fountain of Lake Eola. Give Downtown Orlando a try and it's easy to see why it's nicknamed "The City Beautiful."
