Theme parks are great places to spend the day with your family or friends. The electric atmosphere is always filled with excitement, the smell of great food, and the happy screams of riders. Visiting theme parks several days in a row, however, can get a bit tiresome. Sometimes it's nice to slow things down a bit. Orlando is full of fascinating places--places where you won't find even one rollercoaster! Enjoy a change of scenery at some of these amazing venues in Orlando:

Lake Eola Park is the centerpiece of Orlando. Originally donated to the city by a wealthy local family, the agreement was that Orlando would beautify the land for public use or the family would take the property back.

Orlando, Florida, is the home of Discovery Cove, an all-inclusive day resort for the entire family. Yes, there really is something for everybody and every age.

Thinks about it, no long lines at whichever attraction you choose.

Universal Orlando's newest theme park is not just more of the same. While Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure focus on thrill rides that put you in the middle of your favorite movies, Volcano Bay is a water park that offers a perfect balance of relaxation and excitement.

At the center of it all is the towering Krakatau Volcano, home to one of the most thrilling rides in the park.
