   Parks
   
   
   While visiting Florence we stopped at Deibert Park. It is full of widely paved walking trails that have numerous paths throughout the large park which includes an abundance of large shade trees and plenty of places to rest. There are numerous interpretive & educational areas, ponds complete with fish and turtles, benches, assessible docks, and on the water gazebos, etc. The public restroom was very clean and also assessible. They also have a beautiful veteran memorial located at the main entrance. We were very impressed by the number of people who were visiting the park just for the walking paths. It is truly a beautifully designed and well maintained park with a wonderful storied history that dates back to 1875, as part of a large plantation. See more..

7. 5.0 Shoals Symphony at UNA (1 review)
   - Wonderful Small Town Symphony!
   Symphonies
   
   
   Florence is very lucky to have a symphony that is as high caliber as the Shoals Symphony at UNA. The Shoals Symphony performs at various venues across town such as the Kennedy-Douglass Center for the Arts and at local high schools. However, their primary location is Norton Auditorium at UNA. My family recently attended their yearly Disney Live performance. They showed the original "The Jungle Book" movie on a large screen while the orchestra played during the movie. It was fantastic and enjoyable for all ages! The Shoals Symphony at UNA performs one Disney Live show per year. They have already announced that "Ratatouille" will be the focus of their Disney Live performance next season. I've also been fortunate to see the Shoals Symphony perform for local school children during a field trip with my son. They feature many talented musicians. Florence is really blessed to have such a wonderful musical offering as the Shoals Symphony at UNA. See more..
