Most of the themed areas of Universal Studios Florida are completely free of any walls or barricades. After multiple years of aggressive expansion, it seems like things have really started to slow down, even though this is just a period of transition that should soon bring even more major projects to this fantastic theme park. As you will see, work continues in the Garden of Allah Villas area, while other sections of the park get refurbished. Let's take a look around:
