WHAT TO VISIT IN JACKSONVILLE
Jacksonville's old town
Jacksonville's old town offers some interesting spots: the
Florida Theater, the Museum of Science and History, the
Jacksonville Museum of Modern Art, the Cummer Museum of Art and
Gardens... The Metropolitan Park and the nearby Jacksonville
Jaguars home (the Alltel Stadium) also deserve an attentive
look.
For a fifteen minutes overview of the old town, take the
Skyway Monorail, which will drive you from the Convention Center
to Hamming Park.
Jacksonville's beaches
Ponte Vedra - in the Southeast of Jacksonville - is a rather
exclusive beach, surrounded by luxurious mansions. For less
exclusive beaches and for surfing, the Neptune Beach and
Jacksonville Beach - a little north of Ponte Vedra - are better
places. Jacksonville Beach offers a water park and other
amusement facilities. Neptune Beach offers an interesting
gambling center for those who love it.
