Orlando's city is the county seat of Orange County, Florida.
According to 2005 census, the population was 213,223, doing it the
sixth biggest city in Florida. It is point of the Orlando-Kissimmee
too, Florida, Metropolitan Statistical Area. The Orlando Kissimmee
MSA is Florida's third biggest metropolitan area, backside Miami
Fort Lauderdale West Palm Beach and Tampa St. Petersburg Clearwater.
Many historians date Orlando's name to about 1836 when a soldier
named Orlando Reeves allegedly died in the area, during the war
against the Seminole Indian tribe. It appears, even so, that Orlando
Reeves (sometimes Rees) ran a sugar mill and plantation around 30
miles (50 km) to the north at Spring Garden in Volusia County, and
pioneer settlers simply established his name carved into a tree and
assumed it was a marker for his grave site. They then mentioned to
the area like "Orlando's grave" and later only "Orlando."
Orlando, Florida, for majority of people brings up the image of
theme parks, principally Disney World, but it has a lot more to
provide than that. In fact, Disney is especially not in Orlando, but
is in nearby Lake Buena Vista. Don't forget that you don't miss
downtown Orlando and charming Winter Park.
Orlando is a city constructed on theme parks. Up to the time of
1966, there was wanted little here in central Florida, but growth
has turned thanks to a huge influx of visitors following the arrival
of Walt Disney World. From the original Magic Kingdom, which opened
in 1971 after a five-year building programme, Disney has added three
more theme parks, two water parks and a host of associated
development, containing hotels, shops and golf courses to make it a
true ‘World’ resort.
With Disney, SeaWorld and Universal have added to Orlando’s
reputation as the family amusement capital of the world. Between
them, they draw more than 40 million visitors every year, and that
has meant a huge growth in associated hotels, restaurants and shops,
plus a host of smaller-scale attractions.
Even so, this juvenile city has also improved its own identity, with
several high-tech industries relocating here. The downtown area is
fast developing yuppie overtones and there are ambitious plans to
become a major cultural centre. The city is also one of America’s
top five convention locations, having said that, the main attraction
for 99% of visitors remains the theme parks, and the likes of the
nearby Kennedy Space Center. And, in order to attract the
all-important repeat visitors, Orlando has become adept at
re-inventing itself and providing new attractions at regular
intervals.
