Always a great time at Ocean Drive. Lots of tourists and very expensive cars :-) It's gotten pricier since my last visit

Extending from the Atlantic Ocean to the east and Biscayne Bay to the west on Miami Beach, FL, Lincoln Road features various shops, cafés, galleries, restaurants, bars and other businesses. It attracts over 11 million visitors annually from all over the world not just for its premier shopping destinations, restaurants, and nightlife but also for its architecture. When famed architect Morris Lapidus was commissioned to redesign Lincoln Rd in the 1960s, his distinguished style positioned the road as one of the most luxurious destinations in the city during that time.

Anchored by three internationally respected cultural institutions, the New World Symphony, Arts Center South Florida and the Colony Theater, Lincoln Road serves as a charging station for the mind, body and spirit.

This was a very powerful and beautifully sad memorial. Though small, it captures the horrors of this dark time in human history.

Reviewed By StephenCr0ss - Dublin, Ireland
It’s a long long street of hotels restaurants and bars and the buzz of supercars driving up and down the street. People watching, happy hour and sunshine. Slightly quieter than Ocean Drive.

9. Art Deco Historic District
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 6,652 reviews
An area of Miami Beach noted for its concentration of over 800 Art Deco buildings all within one square mile. Consider joining the walking tour which takes you past the white- and pastel-colored stucco buildings beautifully restored to their former splendor thanks to the Miami Design Preservation League.

I flew in from SoCal which has quite a bit of Art Deco in its own right, especially in and around Los Angeles, and Miami has an absolute treasure trove of architectural gems to admire! The area is also pretty clean, easily walkable and for those into the nightlife aspect, the bars/clubs are hoppin' well after dark. Miami has a very distinct brand of Art Deco that differs from the more grandiose buildings in places like NYC (think Chrysler Building), Detroit (think Guardian Building) and LA (think Eastern Columbia Building). The beauty in these smaller structures lie in the subtle pastel colors of the facades, the sleek, aerodynamic linework, and the sheer extravagance of their neon lights at night. I highly recommend visiting during the day and night because each visit gives you a different experience. Definitely a lovely place.
10. Espanola Way
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2,666 reviews
Española Way is a historic street between 14th and 15th street on Miami Beach, stretching from Washington Avenue to the western corners of Drexel Avenue. Española Way is a quaint and picturesque Spanish-inspired village designed in Mediterranean Revival style. In May 2017, the City of Miami Beach invested and completed a $2.5 million revitalization project on the pedestrian-only street. Today, Española Way is experiencing a renaissance, living out the intentions of those who built it nearly a century ago. It is a festive street where locals and travelers congregate to commiserate, create and celebrate.
