Kissimmee

Kissimmee has been a cattle-trading centre in Central Florida since the late 19th century. On the northern shore of Lake Tohopekaliga, the city retains links to the ranching country that shaped Osceola County before tourism became a major part of the local economy. Downtown’s Monument of States, erected in 1943, is a distinctive civic landmark assembled from stones contributed by people across the United States. Lake Tohopekaliga is widely known for fishing, while the city’s parks and lakefront connect everyday life to the water. Historic downtown streets, local rodeo traditions and access to the wider Orlando area give Kissimmee a character apart from the theme-park corridors.
