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
Stroll the roads of the picture-perfect town of Celebration. The neighborhood, created by Disney, is a blend of historic-themed buildings and modern technology. Admire the old-fashioned shops and let the kids play in the interactive fountain. Go to the farmers market on Sunday mornings or see the many cost-free events (author readings and signings) which are available from the Reading Trout Books store. Travellers could even see (fake) snow in the winter time.
Downtown Disney/ Disney Springs
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
Each year, thousands of tourists who come to Orlando make a visit to Lake Wales, Florida, to find out if the old Indian Legend of Spook Hill is true. A sign marks the place where it is possible to stop your automobile, put it in neutral, and watch as the car mysteriously moves uphill. There have been a lot of sightings of Children around the road, but when the tourists get out to check, they all vanish. Find out is the legends are true!
