Neighborhoods

International Drive – the theme park corridor most visitors consider the city’s main drag – is just the tip of the Orlando iceberg. From leafy bricked streets in downtown Orlando’s historic heart to the ritzy golf communities of Dr. Phillips and the old-money hideaway of Winter Park, Orlando’s neighborhoods are a diverse bunch.

International Drive
I-Drive snakes past the theme parks of Universal and SeaWorld and serves as a destination unto itself thanks to kitschy attractions, outlet malls, and the Orlando Convention Center.
Celebration
Experience vintage, small-town American life in Disney's planned community, where tidy homes cluster around a pedestrian-friendly central plaza. Some find it peaceful, others think of The Stepford Wives.
Downtown Orlando
Escape the theme parks by heading to the city's urban heart, home to 43-acre Lake Eola Park, the hip Thornton Park neighborhood, a Vietnamese district, and the Loch Haven cultural center (a bit north).
College Park/Lake Ivanhoe
Go antiquing near the lake or make like Kerouac, one of the area's most famous former denizens, and chill in this unpretentious 'hood’ near downtown.
Dr. Phillips
An affluent residential area located west of I-Drive at Sand Lake Road and known for its Restaurant Row, a stretch of upscale eateries.
Winter Park
Charm abounds in this historic spot, filled with trees dripping Spanish moss. Browse the Park Avenue shops, take a boat tour, or visit its three art museums.
