The great city of Miami is known for its pleasant weather, fabulous beaches, and the influence of its international population. It's divided into several neighborhoods, areas, and districts.
Below is a list of 5 neighborhoods you should not miss, and a summarized description of each one of them.
Sunny Isles
Often
referred to as the Florida Riviera, it is a beach community with a relaxed
atmosphere and a racially mixed population. You can find everything, from 50's
beachfront motels to luxury apartment towers and hotels.
Little Havana
This
small neighborhood is located in downtown Miami and is the Cuban neighborhood,
the place where immigrants settled in the years following Castro's revolution.
The main street is known as Calle Ocho (SW Eighth Street) and is the heart of
the place.
Little Haiti
This other ethnic neighborhood has art galleries, Haitian bookstores and music shops, and the Cultural Center, where dance and theater shows are performed. A bronze statue of General Toussaint Louverture, the father of Haitian independence, is located northeast of 2nd Avenue and 62nd Street in the heart of "La Petite Haiti."
