Orlando, Florida, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the United States, with more than 60 million visitors annually. However, the city has a diverse history, and its attractions have changed over time to reflect this.
Florida started its history in 1513, over two centuries before the Pilgrims arrived at Plymouth Rock, and Orlando is still going strong today. Ponce de León, a Spanish explorer, arrived to Florida’s Atlantic coast and its rich flora in pursuit of “the elixir of youth.” He named it La Florida, which means “the place of flowers.” After years of alternating Spanish, French, and British rule, the land was given over to the United States in 1821.
