Tourist Information about Miami
From its beginnings as a tiny river settlement, Miami City, the largest city in the Florida State, is now a bustling cosmopolitan, a travel, dwelling, and business Mecca for many of its residents and visitors. Throughout its history, it has become a land of promise for throngs of settlers who have fled their troubled countries to begin new lives. The influx of this interesting mix of immigrants made Miami into a melting pot of cultures largely dominated by Hispanics, whose jovial culture greatly defined the city's hot and spicy character. A trip through the Little Havana is a virtual experience of a pre-Castro Cuban life. The niche for good Cuban food is, ironically, the French-named Versailles Diner. Before one heads out to shake to the Latin beat in La Covacha in Havana's north area, a lesson or two on salsa dance steps at Bongo's Cuban Café would get you dancing like a pro. Haitian emigrants largely inhabit the northern part of Miami, whose own unique heritage transformed the district into a lively black Carribean community. In the 1980's the area became known as Little Haiti. The place comes alive with its own identity: the Caribbean primitive art, Creole cooking, and other Haitian fare. The ethnic feel do get the most attention, but the city's urban attractions such as the Art Deco District, the fiery club scenes, the spicy dining experience are too inviting to resist. Miami is synonymous to beaches, owing to its renowned white sand beaches such as the Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Pompano, and Hollywood beach. With its' endless catalogue of zestful sights, sounds and destinations, Miami, Florida is indeed an excellent travel destination. |
