Top 10 Tampa Attractions

Tampa, FL is one of the most popular cities in the state outside of Miami and Orlando. In fact, it is actually a top city for twenty-somethings, according to Washington Square News, a NYU newspaper. Also, according to Pew Research Center's 2009 study, the city ranks as the fifth most popular American city to live. Forbes also rank it fifth in best outdoor cities in 2008.

Among the reasons to live and visit Tampa, here are 10 attractions that are not to be missed.

1. Busch Gardens Tampa Bay

Visited by more than 4.2 million people per year, it is one of the most popular theme parks in the state. Six world-class roller coasters and animal-related exhibits make it the best of both worlds.

2. Florida Aquarium

The aquarium houses more than 20,000 animals and plants from around the globe. Fauna and the exhibits are placed in such a way that it looks like a drop of water that visitors must follow from the natural springs to the Gulf of Mexico.

3. Museum of Science & Industry

The museum covers many disciplines that include meteorology, physics, anatomy, and biology, all part of its massive science focus.

4. Lowry Park Zoo

Voted the best zoo in the country Parents Magazine, this zoo is probably best organized and cleanest you'll find.

5. Salvador Dali Museum

Outside of Europe, this museum holds the largest collection of Dali's work.

6. Glazer Children's Museum

This place is so much fun that children aren't the only ones that enjoy themselves. That is because there are a wide variety of hands-on exhibits such as a cruise ship and more.

7. Tampa Bay History Center

Learn everything there is to know about the city, even if it's only 150 years old. But between the Native American tribes and Spanish settlers, there's a lot to know.

8. Bayshore Boulevard

This is the longest continuous sidewalk in the country, running from about MacDill Air Force Base to downtown Tampa.

9. Tampa Museum of Art

Specializing in antiques from the Roman and Greek eras, as well as in modern 20th century works, this museum rivals the Dali and Children's museums.

10. Hillsborough River State Park

This is the state's oldest and most popular state parks. There are plenty of activities to take advantage of here such as kayaking and canoeing.
