Kissimmee Lighthouse, Brick lighthouse in Kissimmee Lakefront Park, United States.

The Orlando area and its surroundings offer much more than theme parks. A thirty-minute drive from Walt Disney World, the Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral traces American space exploration history with full-scale rockets and Apollo mission exhibits. Nature enthusiasts will enjoy Gatorland, a 45-hectare (110-acre) animal park home to over 2,000 alligators and crocodiles, or Bok Tower Gardens in Lake Wales, a 100-hectare (250-acre) reserve famous for its 62-meter (205-foot) carillon tower and landscaped gardens. Downtown Orlando features various themed museums, from the Science Museum with its planetarium to more unusual collections like the International Drive Wax Museum. Families appreciate entertainment options such as WonderWorks, identified by its upside-down building, or Fun Spot America in Kissimmee, offering roller coasters and go-kart tracks. For quiet relaxation, Leu Gardens display 20 hectares (50 acres) of botanical collections, while Kissimmee Lakefront Park hugs the shores of Lake Tohopekaliga with its paved trails and fishing piers.
