10 Reasons to Visit Orlando This Winter

Presenting a royal flush of the world’s greatest theme parks complemented by a flourishing roster of family-oriented activities, it’s no wonder that Orlando has surpassed New York City as the most visited city in the country (62 million visitors to Orlando in 2014). For those considering a trip this winter, these newly minted attractions make the case even more convincing as incredible heights are now attainable on a new landmark, a Star Wars attraction brings fans even closer to the Force, and an Iron Chef sets up shop in triumphant fashion. With an average 236 days of sun annually, Orlando promises balmy days of fun this winter. —Zachary Laks
