The main campus for this university. USF only had five buildings when it first opened in 1960, but quickly grew to its current form with 240 buildings in Tampa alone. USF is known for having beautiful greenery, fountains, and architecture. As a matter of fact, it was named the "top architecture school in Florida" by the Florida Board of Architecture and Interior Design in 2002. A sports fan? USF has you covered here as well! The South Florida Bulls play Division I football (at Raymond James Stadium) and basketball (at the on-campus Yuengling Center) among other sports.
Hands-on children's science museum, including an IMAX dome and stellar revolving exhibits. Great way to spend a day with the family.
Water park adjoining Busch Gardens, combined or single admission with the main park is available.
More than just an amusement park -- also a top-notch zoo. Expensive, but a very enjoyable day -- rides, shows. This is a fun place for all ages, kids, teens, and even adults. It has a family friendly atmosphere with lots of things to do and see. The scenery is amazing; it has a feel of different places as you travel throughout the park. Rides vary from a huge merry go round to the famous rollercoaster, Montu. There are many different types of rides to choose from and also many roller coasters to choose from as well. Not a ride fan? You can check out the many shows they perform daily. Ice skating, singing, magic, birds and other performances can be found all around the corners of Busch Gardens. Not a show fan either? Then check out the many food establishments spread out through the park. They offer fast food like popcorn and fries to a nice sit-down meal. Also check Busch Gardens out during different holidays. They always have special events and offers. For instance, for Halloween they have Howl-O-Scream when the park is open all night long. They also have special events for over night stays, New Years, and special ticket sales for Florida residents. Always watch out for these special events because they happen all the time.
