Lake Eola Park
About
Situated in the heart of Downtown Orlando, Lake Eola Park offers a serene, scenic escape from the high-energy theme park districts. The park is centered around a beautiful natural sinkhole lake, wrapped in a 0.9-mile paved pedestrian pathway shaded by ancient oak trees draped in Spanish moss. It is famous for its elegant resident swans, spectacular views of the downtown skyline, and the iconic, mid-century modern fountain.
