Miami Beach Districts

In Miami Beach there is a division into areas of business activity, respectable recreation and noisy parties

The central part of Miami Beach lives in a business rhythm. A little to the north of the skyscrapers and business centers is the area of ​​fashionable villas: the luxurious mansions of the richest inhabitants of the city and golf clubs give this place a solidity. The central street of the area is Collins Avenue, on both sides of which are villas of celebrities and billionaires. And north of Miami Beach, almost imperceptibly passes into the no less famous resorts of the USA: Hollywood, Fort Lauderdale, Deerfriddle Beach, Boca Raton and Palm Beach.

The southern part of the city is what Miami- Beach: restaurants, hotels, clubs, resort attractions - all for a carefree holiday. The so-called South Beach is the most crowded place in Miami Beach. His business card is buildings of pastel colors, elite restaurants for social events and more democratic cafes and cabarets, trendy night clubs and shops that attract millions of tourists all year round

A kind of visiting card of the Southern region is a chain of hotels lined up along the ocean between the 5th and 15th streets. Today, nothing reminds of the once scandalous history of these quarters, associated with the production of liqueurs and gambling, attracted such criminal authorities as Al Capone. Today all the historic quarters have been restored, and the area called "SoBe" is one of the most luxurious places in Miami and Miami Beach. Now it is often called the American Riviera.

Art-Deco-District deserves special attention - whole blocks of houses built in the 1920s in style, as you might guess, Art Deco (or modern, which is exactly the same thing ) - an entire architectural museum in the open air. Cabaret, theaters and a casino are one of the most colorful nightlife centers in Miami Beach with a touch of retro stylistics.

The heart of Miami Beach is the area of ​​Ocean Drive, on the east side of which stretches many kilometers of city beach. From the west, Ocean Drive is separated from the city by a strip of numerous cafes and restaurants. Quay Ocean Drive - the epicenter of all the events of the resort: day and night here everything is in motion. Dazzling showcase lights, chic hotels, trendy al fresco restaurants, bars where jazz and rock and roll are played ...

According to the Playboy magazine, Ocean Drive collects up to 1,500 photomodels all year round. The boom began about 10 years ago, when several well-known photo artists took a fancy to the roof of the Marlin hotel for shooting. There were so many people who wanted to settle nearby that the prices for hotels in the "beauty quarter" were instantly 30-50% higher than outside.
In addition, it was in this area that the late Gianni Versace lived, his admirers and to this day gather near the house where the famous Italian fashion designer was killed.

From Miami Beach on the bridges, connecting between 28 small islands, you can walk to the island of Key West. It is home to the famous town of writers and artists of the same name. Once here I bought an abandoned villa Ernest Hemingway, setting the stage for a bohemian audience, and now this museum houses his museum.

Beaches of Miami Beach

The strip of beaches of Miami Beach stretches for 45 km along the Atlantic coast. It was the beaches that initially provided such a significant glory to the resort. The sun shines here all year round, the average annual temperature is approaching +25 ° C, and in winter it seldom falls below +20 ° C, in summer it sometimes exceeds the mark of +35 ° C.

Tourists here are attracted by the purest sand, crystal waters of the Atlantic, as well as a lot of opportunities to spend 24 hours in a fun and unforgettable experience. And it was the bubbling nightlife and not a bit inferior to her daytime made Miami Beach a resort with international fame.

A local juicy attraction is Haulover Beach - the only legal beach for nudists in the city.

Restaurants

The restaurant business in Miami Beach is worth a special mention. First of all, these are establishments offering Cuban cuisine to tourists - the best Cuban restaurant is named "Versailles". Richly decorated and reputed to be quite a noisy establishment, it attracts tourists from all over the world. However, it is so great that you can always find a quiet place inside.

By the way, the most expensive dessert in "Versailles" costs only $ 2, 75.

In the Art Deco area, there are many restaurants where a variety of cuisine is offered. It is here that you can taste both frog legs and real dumplings.

Especially popular in the resort are open-air cafes and restaurants. Especially on the Ocean Drive, which the Americans called: "the universal street watching girls." Considering that a lot of people are moving here on rollers (renting literally at every corner), beauties flit past connoisseurs very often.

Entertainment, excursions and attractions in Miami Beach

First of all, this is the above mentioned historical area of ​​Art Deco: in 1979 it was officially included in the National Register of Historic Places, as the world's largest collection of ar-aeko architecture erected between 1923 and 1943

Of no less interest is the Bass Museum of Art - an Art Deco building with elements of Maya architecture, built in 1930. Originally there was a library and an art center, which became a museum in 1964, when collectors John and Joanna Bass handed him their own collection of paintings of European artists, sculptures and fabrics of the 15th and 17th centuries.
