More ideas from Kissimmee

Worth it if you're flying out of MCO or want something different: public art, a light-up tower and a container food park.

Skip it if it's Monday–Wednesday and you want food at Boxi Park, or if a 30–45 minute drive from the Disney area is too far.

A little plan for your visit.

  1. Start at The Beacon and Code Wall

    Park in a Town Center garage and walk around the six-story digital art tower and binary-code garage. They are best after dark.

  2. Continue to the DNA Garage

    Walk or make the short drive to the Valencia-orange DNA artwork at 6887 Marwick Ln.

  3. Choose an optional food stop

    Boxi Park is open Thursday–Sunday and closed Monday–Wednesday. On closed days, use another Town Center restaurant and check its hours.

  4. Head back, or stay near the airport

    Go on to an airport hotel if that fits your trip. This is a first- or last-night option near MCO.
