Miami, a major city on Florida's southeastern coast, combines Caribbean influences with American culture. The city extends from the Atlantic Ocean to the Everglades and includes diverse neighborhoods with distinct identities. Miami Beach, South Beach, and the Art Deco Historic District shape the coastal landscape, while Little Havana reflects the city's Cuban heritage. Cultural offerings range from the Pérez Art Museum Miami to Vizcaya Museum and Gardens and the Wolfsonian-FIU. Wynwood Walls has become a center for street art. Natural areas like Everglades National Park, Oleta River State Park, and Crandon Park provide access to subtropical ecosystems. Key Biscayne, Coral Gables with Venetian Pool, and Coconut Grove complement the metropolitan area. Additional facilities include Miami Seaquarium, Zoo Miami, Jungle Island, and Miami Children's Museum. Historic sites such as Freedom Tower, Barnacle Historic State Park, and Ancient Spanish Monastery document different eras. Bayside Marketplace serves as a shopping and entertainment center, while Coral Castle and Stiltsville represent architectural curiosities.
