Monument of States

Located on the north end of Lakefront Park. Also located in the park is a nice playground and three war memorials (Survivors of Bataan, Vietnam Memorial, and tribute to Kissimmee Veterans KIA from WWI to Vietnam). There is also a replica lighthouse made of bricks and about 30 feet tall. I don't think it works though. Nice place to stop for about 90 minutes to wander around.

The Monument is on the corner of Monument and Lakefront and the park is beautiful. There are several other monuments in the park, including one on a purple heart-shaped path at the VFW. Plenty of places to eat two blocks up on Broadway (I left my car parked at the park and walked up), and many interesting sculptures along the way.

Very cool! Found Hawaii but not Alaska. There is also a time capsule there set to be opened in 2043. The park nearby is beautiful too!

This was a neat attraction. The park is extremely nice and we saw a family of ducks, including ducklings, marching across the road, during our visit. The monument is cool and it was definitely worth the trip!
