Free things in Florida

I know just what you're thinking... "FREE?! In Orlando?! Yeah right!" Well in fact there are numerous free attractions in Orlando. Of course of course they aren't usually as magnificent as some of the more common attractions in the area, but if in case you're on a low spending budget and you want a "day filler" make sure to check a couple of these out.

Disney's Boardwalk

Enjoy a relaxing walk along Disney's Boardwalk, a re-creation of a 1930s-style Atlantic coastal town. The 45-acre (18-hectare) waterfront district is renowned for a number of nightclubs and entertainment hot spots, but the entire family can enjoy the various street musicians, magicians, and entertainers at no cost.

Celebration

Roam the streets of the picture-perfect town of Celebration. The area, created by Disney, is a mixture of historic-themed residences and modern technology. Admire the old fashioned structures and let the children play in the interactive fountain. Take a look around the farmers market on Sunday mornings or discover the various zero cost events (author readings and signings) made available from Reading Trout Books. Travelers might even notice (fake) snow falling in the winter season.

Downtown Disney

You don't need a Disney Park ticket to experience Disney retail stores and entertainment. Visit the streets of Downtown Disney Marketplace for several boutiques and eating places for any budget. Remember to check out their Festival of the Masters (November), an arts-and-crafts event where kids can make a chalk masterpieces. Watch glassblowers at Arribas Brothers; see the 4,400-square-foot (409-square-meter) LEGO Imagination Center to take part in a "beat-the-clock" building contest, and observe a 12-foot (3.6-meter) T. Rex and 30-foot (9-meter) sea serpent, each crafted from countless LEGO bricks.

Disney Fireworks

Simply you aren't in the park, it doesn't mean you can't enjoy the Magic Kingdom fireworks. There are lots of superb viewing areas at and around the Magic Kingdom Resort Hotels. A few of my favorites are The Polynesian hotel beach area, Bay Lake Tower, as well as Grand Floridian Resort. Some of these spots will typically play the shows soundtrack to make sure you have the complete effect.

The Legend of Spook Hill

Every single year, a large number of tourists who visit Orlando head to Lake Wales, Florida, to find out if the old Indian Legend of Spook Hill is true. A sign marks the spot where you can stop your car, place it in neutral, and watch as your vehicle mysteriously moves uphill.

Old Town

Just south of the Orlando International Airport is Old Town, a unique entertainment park and shopping spot. Over seven-hundred motorcyclists rally through the streets on Thursday evenings. On Saturday nights Old Town comes to life with a vintage-car parade with more than 300 motors. While the area has live entertainment every evening starting from 7:30 p.m., its Saturday evening show (7 p.m.) will play solely '50s and '60s rock 'n' roll. Visitors are required to buy tickets for the amusement rides, nonetheless access to Old Town, as well as its concerts and car shows, is totally free.

TNA IMPACT Wrestling

The well-known Television wrestling show is occasionally taped at the Universal Studios Resort. I've been to a handful of tapings and it's definitely a lot of fun to see. TNA currently features such names as Kurt Angle, Jeff Hardy, and Hulk Hogan. And best of all, it's totally free!
