Description
Ocala acquaints you with Florida's genteel side, with a Victorian district, rolling countryside dotted with horse farms and a retro-favorite attraction, Silver Springs (the glass-bottom boat tour here is a must). The Ocala National Forest and surrounding state parks offer a dip in the area's famous springs, camping and cycling. Indoors, visit the Appleton Museum of Art.
