Orlando, Florida is known by the nickname of The City Beautiful. The nickname was first used in 1908 by the then Mayor, Bob Carr, during a speech. Since then, it has become a widely recognized nickname for the city.

The name is appropriate given the city's many beautiful parks, lakes, and gardens, including Lake Eola Park, which is located in the heart of downtown Orlando. The park features a beautiful fountain, swan-shaped paddle boats, and stunning views of the city skyline. Other notable attractions that add to the city's beauty include the Harry P. Leu Gardens, the Albin Polasek Museum and Sculpture Gardens, and the Bok Tower Gardens.
