ORLANDO HOTELS ORLANDO , a
quiet farming town in 1970, now has more visitors than any other place in the
state. The reason, of course, is Walt Disney World , which, along with
Universal Studios Escape, Sea World and a host of themed attractions, pulls
more than 25 million people a year to a previously featureless plot of
scrubland. Few people head to Orlando proper, choosing instead one of the
countless motels along Hwy-192 , fifteen miles south, or International
Drive , five miles southwest. Despite enormous expansion over the last
decade, the town itself remains free of the commercialism that surrounds it.
