During your Jacksonville vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Jacksonville Landing
Resembling New York City's South Street Seaport, Boston's Faneuil Hall, Miami's Bayside, and Baltimore's Inner Harbor, this glass-and-steel complex on the north bank of the river serves as the focus of downtown activity. Yeah, you may see a mime or two occasionally, and there's a Hooters, a Ruby Tuesday, and a Starbucks, but there's also amazing local live music, good non-chain sushi, and Thai and Mexican restaurants. Unlike those in other cities, this complex is not just for tourists -- it's command central for many locals looking for a lively day or night out. There are more than 65 stores here, but shopping is secondary to the dining and entertainment. You can choose from a half-dozen full-service restaurants, plus an inexpensive food court with indoor and outdoor seating overlooking the river. The Landing is the scene of numerous special events, ranging from arts festivals to baseball-card shows, plus outdoor rock, blues, country, and jazz concerts on weekends. Call or check the website to find out what's going on during your stay.

Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens
Built on the grounds of a private Tudor mansion, this modestly sized but impressive museum is worth a visit for anyone who appreciates the visual arts. The permanent collection encompasses works from 2000 B.C. to the present. It's especially rich in American Impressionist paintings, 18th-century porcelain, and 18th-century Japanese woodblock prints. Personally, I find the art here a bit boring and too focused on landscapes, but that's my taste. Frankly -- and art snobs may gasp at this statement -- the actual landscaping of the museum is infinitely more spectacular. Don't miss the stunning Italian and English gardens set on the scenic St. Johns River. The museum hosts temporary and traveling exhibits and sponsors a multitude of activities during the year, so call ahead to see what's happening.

Southbank Riverwalk
Bordering the St. Johns River, directly opposite Jacksonville Landing , this 1 1/4-mile wooden zigzag boardwalk is usually filled with joggers, tourists, folks sitting on benches, and lovers walking hand-in-hand, all of them watching the riverboats, the shorebirds, and downtown's skyline reflected in the water. At 200 feet in diameter, the Friendship Fountain, near the west end, is the nation's largest self-contained fountain; it's especially beautiful at night when illuminated by 265 colored lights. Nearby, you'll pass military memorials, a small museum dedicated to the city's history, and the Museum of Science & History of Jacksonville (MOSH), at Museum Circle and San Marco Boulevard (tel. 904/396-6674; www.themosh.org). MOSH is an interactive children's museum focusing on the science and history of Northeast Florida. One of its stars is an Allosaurus dinosaur skeleton. It also has a small planetarium, with shows included in museum admission: $7 for adults, $5.50 for seniors, and $5 for children 3 to 12. The museum is open Monday through Friday from 10am to 5pm, Saturday from 10am to 6pm, and Sunday from 1 to 6pm. The Riverwalk is the scene of special MOSH programs, seafood fests, parties, parades, and arts-and-crafts festivals.

Make your reservations for discount hotel rooms in the Jacksonville area, including:

The House on Cherry Street
This colonial-style wood-frame house, on the St. Johns River in the Riverside neighborhood, is ideal for a romantic vacation. French doors open onto a delightful screened-in porch furnished with rocking chairs; it overlooks an expanse of tree-shaded lawn (where guests play croquet) leading to the river (where they play with kayaks and canoes). You might go for the Rose Room or the Duck Room, each with canopied four-poster bed and river view. Ducks are rather a theme here, with hundreds of antique decoys on display. All units offer adjacent sitting rooms, private bathrooms, ceiling fans, and fresh flowers. No smoking is permitted inside. This place gets booked up fast, so make reservations as early as possible.

Sea Turtle Inn
Completely gutted and restored in 1999 and 2000, this elegant, eight-story beachfront hotel (whose exterior facade could use some updating to match the lovely interior) is much more upscale than the Sea Horse Oceanfront Inn, which it faces across Atlantic Boulevard. (Despite their shouting-distance proximity, one technically is in Atlantic Beach, the other in Neptune Beach.) The guest units are spacious except for their somewhat cramped bathrooms. The best units, few in number, face the beach and have balconies. Plantains Restaurant is a fine spot for an alfresco beachside meal; it offers live music on weekends. There's also a lounge in the restaurant and a summertime Tiki bar beside the pool by the beach.

Plantation Manor Inn
The setting for many weddings and special events, this plantation-style B&B in the historic Riverside district is blocks from the river, 10 minutes from downtown, and a short drive to Avondale's shopping and dining. Its homey interior features a mix of thrift-store antiques, glossy pine floors, gorgeous cypress paneling, wainscoting, and carved moldings. Breakfast, which includes freshly baked muffins and breads, is served in a lovely dining room with a working fireplace. If the sun is shining, take your morning meal on the brick patio, a delightful setting with ivy-covered walls, flower beds, and garden furnishings under the shade of a massive oak tree. The patio also contains a lap pool and whirlpool spa. On the second floor, you can enjoy a big wraparound porch with seating amid potted geraniums, hibiscus, and bougainvillea. All but one of the rooms here have shower-only bathrooms.
