Experience Genuine Florida reflected in our culture, which dates back thousands of years, built on a foundation of the aborginal cultures who first settled these shores, followed by the Timucua, Calusa, Ais, and more who met the first European explorers, and the Seminole and Miccosukee as modern-day descendents of the first peoples. Temple mounds and middens, pioneer museums and agricultural tours, historical museums and whimsical structures, architecture and the arts, and festivals that celebrate the uniqueness of Florida: you'll find Florida's genuine heart in it all.
