I know exactly what you're thinking. "Free in Orlando? Whatever!" Well in actuality there are lots of free attractions in Orlando. Now obviously they aren't going to be as awesome as the more established attractions in Orlando, but if you're on a low budget and you are looking to fill a day in, don't forget to check a couple of these out.
The Boardwalk in Walt Disney World
Take a leisurely walk along the Boardwalk by EPCOT, a re-creation of an Atlantic 1930s-style community. The forty five acre waterfront community is renowned for its lively nightclubs and amusement hot spots. Everyone is certain to have fun watching the various street musicians, magicians, and performers without cost.
Celebration Town
Travel the streets of Celebration. The town, crafted by Disney, is a combination of modern technology and historic-themed buildings. Marvel at the vintage shops and let the younger children play in the interactive water fountain. Visit the farmers market before 1pm on Sundays, and see the many free events (author readings) available through Reading Trout Books. Travelers could possibly see (realistic) snow falling in the winter season.
The New Downtown Disney Resort
You don't need to spend money on a ticket to experience Disney's retail stores and entertainment. Wander the streets of Downtown Disney and Disney Springs for a number of boutiques and dining spots. Watch glassblowers at Arribas Brothers and pay a visit to the 4,400-square-foot (409-square-meter) LEGO Imagination Center to experience a "beat-the-clock" building contest, or view a 12-foot (3.6-meter) T. Rex and 30-foot (9-meter) sea serpent, each manufactured from thousands of LEGO bricks. And be sure to check out their Festival of the Masters (November), an arts-and-crafts event where kids can make their own chalk drawings.
The Firework Shows
Although you aren't in the park, it doesn't mean you can't see the fireworks. There are many awesome viewing locations around the Magic Kingdom Resort Hotels. A few of the best are The Grand Floridian Resort, The Polynesian beach, and Bay Lake Tower. A lot of these places will most likely play the soundtrack to ensure that get the full effect of the show.
Haunted Children's Hill
Many tourists still ask if the Legend of Spook Hill is still true. Located in Lake Wales, Florida, a sign marks the place where you should stop the car, leave it in neutral, and watch as your vehicle mysteriously climbs back up to the top of the hill. They say the spirits of Children push you back up. But are they true? We dare you to find out for yourself!
