Let's take a POV driving trip through Gotha, Florida! We'll start our trip on Wilkening Farm Road at the intersection of Apopka Vineland Road. This road used to be Apopka Vineland, until the road was aligned east in the 2000's. From Wilkening Farm, we'll turn on Gotha Road, drive past Gotha Middle School, and then turn right on Hempel Ave at Yellow Dog Eats. Hempel Avenue will travle under the Florida Turnpike and above the East-West Expressway (Toll Road Route 408). After Hempel, we'll turn on Old Winter Garden Road, left on Maguire, and then left on Park Ridge Gotha Road to travel back into the heart of Gotha. Then we'll turn back onto Hempel Ave, circiling back around Apopka Vineland Road to Westover Roberts Road, where we will end our POV driving road trip.
Gotha, Florida is a small town located in Orange County, just outside of the city of Orlando. The town has a rich history dating back to the late 1800s when it was founded by German settlers. These settlers named the town after the German city of Gotha, as a nod to their homeland.
The town of Gotha has a population of around 2,000 people and is known for its small-town charm and tight-knit community. One of the most notable landmarks in the town is the historic Gotha Presbyterian Church, which was built in the early 1900s and is still in use today. The church is a beautiful example of Gothic Revival architecture and is a popular spot for weddings and other special events.
Westover Roberts Road is named after the Westover and Roberts families, who were two of the original settlers of the town. Hempel Avenue is another street of interest in Gotha. It was named after the Hempel family, one of the early settlers of the town. The avenue is lined with beautiful old oak trees and is a popular spot for walking and biking.
In terms of the town's history, it was incorporated in the early 1900s and remained a small, rural community until the 1960s, when the population began to grow rapidly. This was due to the increasing number of people moving to the area for work and the development of the nearby city of Orlando.
Despite this growth, Gotha has managed to maintain its small-town charm and tight-knit community. The town is home to several parks, including the popular Gotha Park, which features a playground, basketball courts, and a large open field for sports and other activities. Another important aspect of the community is the Gotha Community Center, which serves as a hub for community events and activities. The center is home to a variety of programs and classes, including fitness classes, dance classes, and art classes.
There are a few specific goals of Travel Towner:
1. To take fun POV (“Point-of-View”) videos of scenic drives, highways, and roadways so you can virtually travel anywhere you like; or look back at a time when you were younger.
2. Document a fun walking tour of a specific park, attraction, or point of interest so you can see what's it's like to really be there.
3. Showcase vintage footage from yesteryear to show today's viewers what is may have been like back in 19- something something! If you have any vintage footage of past attractions, parks, road trips or anything interesting from the USA? Contact me and let’s feature it here!
4. Just for Fun. These are videos that are funny or interesting in some way that I think everyone will enjoy!
Please give a "thumbs up" if you like taking a POV Road Trip or love POV driving.
Want to get in on the fun and make cool videos too? Here is everything I use to make it happen:

Another big part of the channel is to document a piece of Americana… at a certain point in time. Wouldn’t it be cool to go back to where you lived, 20 or 30 years ago, and take a ride through your hometown? As more roadway drives, walking tours, and vintage trips are added, it builds history so future viewers can go “back in time” and see what it was like, back then.
Roadtripping and traveling are uniquely American pastimes- and we should preserve it’s history- so future generations can appreciate the Freedom of the Road.
