Ivanhoe Village is a local’s favorite for antiquing, shopping, and exploring. It’s filled with art galleries, mom-and-pop restaurants, and local retail shops. It’s bikable, walkable (for the most part) and the “main drag” is anchored by Lake Ivanhoe and Gaston Edwards Park.
The tagline is: “Explore Orlando’s indie side in Ivanhoe Village”. That we did.
In the spirit of Christmas, we started with a stroll down Orange Avenue and made our way from store to store for some last-minute holiday shopping.
Weâre starting in Swansonâs Row and working our way through the old âAntique Rowâ to tell you about our top 10 stops along the way. Â
