Busch Gardens Tampa Bay__TI***qwI had an absolutely amazing time at Busch Gardens! The park had an incredible mix of thrilling roller coasters that got my heart racing and fascinating animal exhibits that were both educational and entertaining. The atmosphere was lively, and the live entertainment added an extra layer of fun. I was able to enjoy both adrenaline-pumping rides and learn about animals—all in one place. Definitely a must-visit for anyone seeking a memorable and diverse experience!
Tampa Convention CenterPpalettes_nyThe Tampa Convention Center is also a major convention center in downtown Tampa. It is located next to the Hillsborough Estuary. You will pass by the large convention center when you walk slowly from Tampa Riverwalk. You can see the riverside landscape and the skyline of the entire city. The Tampa Convention Center was built on the historic site of Fort Brook, the original American outpost built in Tampa Bay in 1824, which was retired by the US Army in 1883 and then built the current convention center hall, so the building itself has a certain sense of history. The Convention and Exhibition Centre opened to the public in October 1990.

The Florida AquariumFFreebird_GraceThis turned out to be better than expected. I mean we read some disappointing reviews. But it wasn't bad at all. It's got Three floors. The first one had the restaurants and gift shops. The second is where they had all the animals and third they had the birds. It made for a nice trip. A bit of a walk from the parking lot.

Straz Center for the Performing ArtsPpalettes_nyThe Straz Center has five theaters, a rehearsal hall and a beautiful riverside trail, and is also a major performing arts center in downtown Tampa, which was heavily renovated in 2018, so the entire art center is now renovated with individual pavilions. Colors, from Broadway tours, large operas, jazz concerts, performing arts and free movie series on the lawn, can be seen here. Next to the art center is a large lawn, and the scenery is very beautiful. It covers 9 acres. It is also the second largest performing arts complex in the Southeast of the United States. The Straz Performing Arts Center opened to the public in July 1987, and later in 2009 to thank David A. Straz Jr. for their donations. The venue was renamed The David A. Straz Jr. Center for the Performing Arts, which is also the largest personal charity donation received by the Tampa City Cultural Organization. Standing in front of the Art Center Building, you can overlook the riverside scenery. There will not be many tourists here. I feel that the whole park is very quiet and comfortable.
Tampa Bay History CenterPpalettes_nyIf you can only punch in a museum in downtown Tampa, then this historical center must be one of the must-check in lists. Located in Ybor Turning Basin, close to the coast, walking all the way from the Florida Aquarium, walking along the river, the scenery is also very pleasant. It feels like the museum is quieter than the Florida Museum of Art, and there are not so many tourists. The museum's exhibition hall setting is also very interesting, will be decorated according to the content of each exhibition hall, and there are interactive small barns, the museum was built in 1989, the pavilion has three floors, set up permanent exhibitions and special exhibitions, the exhibits mainly introduce the history and development of Florida, Among them, there are also original people who have lived here. If you have time, you can set aside 2 hours to visit the museum.
ZooTampa at Lowry ParkPpalettes_nyBefore coming to Tampa, I was planted with grass to this zoo. Although most zoos feel that they are more childlike and more suitable for parent-child travel, take the children to visit on weekends. However, the zoo gives people a good experience. The classification of the zoo is very clear. You can download their map before visiting, follow the map all the way to visit. The animals that can be visited in each area are also clearly marked in the map. I prefer the zoo. In Africa, you can also take a small train to visit, just like shuttled to the animation world of the Lion King, the zoo is very interesting. There is also an interactive area in the park, where you can feed goats and touch devil fish, which is very suitable for bringing children. There is a restaurant in the zoo. If you are tired, you can order some snacks and continue to play in the afternoon. I stayed in the zoo for a whole day. There were many projects to visit. The first time I saw a penguin that could stay outdoors at the zoo, I heard the explanation and learned that this was an African penguin. A penguin that didn’t need air conditioning. It felt like it was also a zoo that could unlock new knowledge.
