One of the most truly amazing things at the park is this gigantic Banyan Tree.  It was brought all the way from India about 60 years ago.

This big platform in the distance, rises high above the gardens and rotates so you can see everything around Winter Haven.  With Florida being so flat you can see for miles.  It's a low stress ride as long as you are not afraid oh heights.

Here is the view from the platform above, it shows some of the gardens and the water skiing show on the lakefront.  You can also see the next lake on the "Chain of Lakes" and then on to Winter Haven town center.

Cypress Gardens is well know for it's Water Ski Show, here's a closer view of guys playing for a living.  Must be nice.
