Lake Wales
Lake Wales Homes For Sale
Overview
Almost at the center of Florida lies Lake Wales, a city in the midst of a garden. Lake Wales is the home of the Bok Tower Gardens. With its majestically landscaped grounds, the garden has been accepting visitors since 1929. It is renowned for its bells, the singing carillon, and Mediterranean-style historic mansion.
Lake Wales has managed to successfully merge elements from the past with the present. Bok Tower Gardens, for instance, has also become the home for local concerts and many outdoor events. Take a trip through the historic downtown area where you can still find murals designed by Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. alongside newer built components of the city.
There is much to see and do here at Lake Wales, especially for people interested in art, nature, and culture. Other than the Bok Tower Gardens, you can check out Spook Hill, a local museum, a commercial historic district, and a shrine dedicated to Saint Anne des Lacs, among others.
Business is encouraged in many thriving communities, and Lake Wales is no different. The city government wants to make it easier for aspiring entrepreneurs and companies to do business in the city by providing resources and a recommended list of locations. If you are in search of a job within the city, visit the Employment page for the latest openings.
