Extremely beautiful scenic park . Perfect for romantic walks or an afternoon jog. The music on each streetlight helps to keep the ambience . Loved it when I visited Orlando.

Located in downtown Orlando this park is a lovely destination for an afternoon walk. The sidewalk runs along the perimeter of the lake side. Unique sculptures were added in 2013 for viewing .

There is so much to do at Lake Eola Park. A phenomenal place to bird watch . However, if you aren't a bird enthusiast you can enjoy all of the different types of dogs. How can one not love that?

Great place to get away, has a park for kids to play n you can get your workout on. Just make sure you park as the direction of the road faces..u get a ticket for not parking the correct way(I guess).

Go with my two year old. Lots of exploring. Great to test out your new camera / take pictures of the family. Farmers market is ok, wish there were better selections.

For the love of god, don't set up your slackline. Park authority will be on you in 3 minutes. However, if you need to help find a lost phone, the park authority will be no where to be found.
