Today, we're familiar with the major theme parks which charge
families hundreds of dollars a day to wait in line for moments of
thrills on technologically amazing rides. Florida, however, has
been drawing tourists for centuries with simpler attractions which
cost much less to view the animals or exhibits, or commune with
nature. In Historic Photos of Florida Early Tourist
Attractions, Steve Rajtar brings us back to the simpler ways
early visitors enjoyed their time in the Sunshine State. Tour the
state with photos of the tourist attractions which were here before
Walt Disney World, in the days when a row of antique cars sufficed
and tourists did not require constant action. See the wax figures
which amazed visitors long before the invention of audioanimatronic
mannequins. See what curiosities brought in the tourists and their
dollars decades before today's theme parks dominated the billboards
and themselves became worldwide vacation destinations.
