The Adrianne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts is the largest performing arts center in Florida and one of the largest centers in the United States. The beautiful architecture was designed by the Argentine-American architect Cesar Pelli, who divided his design into two main components: the Ziff Ballet Opera House and the Knight Concert Hall.
If you want to get an overview of downtown Miami before going for a walk, it is best to take the Miami Sky Lift first. This unusual viewing platform requires a little courage, however, as it is a balloon. Up to 30 people can enjoy the view here for 15 minutes at a height of 150 meters. If visibility is good, you can see for around 40 kilometers.
When it comes to Art Deco design, most people immediately think of the architecturally special, beautiful, colorful hotels in Miami Beach, which are lined up like pearls on a necklace, especially on Ocean Drive – the promenade of Miami Beach. However, this is a movement in design history that originated in Europe between 1920 and 1940.
The famous Ocean Drive is in Miami Beach, more specifically South Beach. Here you’ll find everything most tourists associate with Miami: Art Deco, dream beaches, beautiful people, celebrities, fancy cars, and an expensive stretch of this extraordinary street.
The Lincoln Road Mall is something for onlookers and again – like everywhere else in Miami Beach – it’s all about seeing and being seen. Of course, you can also shop here, and in a mix that will make every wallet rejoice. If you want to bring home a cool T-shirt or a sexy pair of Bermuda shorts, you can find what you’re looking for just as easily as a high-end designer outfit.
Art is everywhere in Miami, but the Wynwood Walls in the district of the same name are a very special experience. You don’t know where to look first with all the colorful splendor that has been conjured up by numerous artists from all over the world in a bold, inspiring and very professional manner on the walls of Miami’s once dilapidated district.
