What to do and see in Miami, Florida (FL): The Best Shopping
Miami is hot hot hot! And it’s not just the sultry weather. Here, the nightlife is scorching, thanks to a strong Latin influence and spicy salsa culture. Dance the noche away in a nightclub, or indulge in a fancy meal at one of the city’s celebrity-owned restaurants. By day, hit the beach of course, or have yourself a walkabout, taking in Miami’s colorful art deco architecture. Grab a Cuban sandwich in Little Havana, then ride the vintage carousel at Virginia Key Beach Park.

5 of 5 because there was no one taking admission - and I hung around the desk awhile waiting to pay. Plus there's a 'take one' fridge in the back - wow. Seriously though this is another of the private modern art collections in Miami that will leave you experiencing (mostly monumental) art installations, many of which are thought providing. On balance, perhaps the Rubbell is better, but there warehouse is a must see, and it's close to Wynwood. Not everything will appeal to everyone, but there's enough space to display truly large concept pieces and nothing feels crowded. Apparently a good research library too of sorts; one suspects they could fill another similarly sized warehouse devoted to prints. A pleasant surprise I had not discovered before.

We finished at Cuba Ocho after a walking tour with Analise - she told us the history and we learnt all about the beautiful artwork. We had our first cocktail there that afternoon and the band was playing! We loved it so much we returned with friends and had an amazing night - the music is just fantastic and watching those that can, Salsa dance. Loved every moment. Don’t hesitate to go - cocktails and wine is very good too and bar staff extremely obliging and friendly! Loved our visits!
