Italian Festival at Silver Springs near Orlando, FL
The Silver Springs nature park in Orlando, plays host to the "Italian Festival", a day of fun the Italian way, for the entire family. This 350 acre nature park turns into a miniature Italy, with a variety of Italian dishes, boat rides, dancing and games open to visitors. The Italian colors of red, white, and green drape the entire park, and the festival is open to all, free of charge. Add to that the abundance of nature & beauty at the Silver Springs nature park, coupled with a touch of Italian seasoning and you have your perfect festive holiday.
Authentic Italian cuisine like Ravioli, Tortellini, Risotto, Cacciucco and many more traditional dishes fill the air with their inviting aroma. There are more varieties of pizza than you can think of and not to mention the endless pasta treats on the menu. But the scrumptious food isn't all that you are offered at this unique festival, there's much more entertainment in store for you.
One such interesting feature is the glass-bottom boat ride on the Silver River that lets you view the marine life, through the bottom of the boat. There are many other boat rides like the "Fort King River Cruise" or the "Lost River Voyage", but if you aren't keen on gliding on water, then you have jeeps that take you through the forest, where you can see many native animal species. Another attraction is the "World of Bears" exhibit, which houses one of the largest collections of bears in the world. There are many rides around the park for children and adults alike.
All this is accompanied by traditional Italian music, which fills the air and you can also shake a leg with the other guests on the dance floor. The Italian Festival allows all visitors to get in touch with the Italian culture and way of life and is guaranteed to be an entertaining day for the entire family.
