Fodor's Review:
The Orange County Regional History Center takes you on a journey back in time to discover how Florida's Paleo-Indians hunted and fished the land; what the Sunshine State was like when Spaniards first arrived in the New World; and how life in Florida was different when citrus was king. Visit a cabin from the late 1800s, complete with Spanish moss-stuffed mattresses, mosquito netting over the beds, and a room where game was preserved prerefrigeration. Seminole Indian displays include interactive screens, and tin-can tourist camps of the early 1900s preview Florida's destiny as a future vacation mecca.
