The people of America joke that even a dry branch will bloom if you stick it in the ground in Florida. And anyone who has seen the beauty of this state with their own eyes will believe them. Any park here becomes an exotic botanical garden. Orange groves sit beside mangrove swamps. And next to the white sands of the Atlantic coast, surrealistic skyscrapers and upscale resorts sprout. An abandoned fort in the middle of an ocean sanctuary is also a Florida reality.
Freedom Tower in Miami.
This building, standing out from the rest of the cityscape both in shape and color, has become a recognizable symbol of Miami. Today, the Museum of Contemporary Art is open inside and houses the offices of the Miami Dade College Art Department.
Orlando Art Museum.
One of the city’s main art museums is the Orlando Museum of Art, which has a wonderful thematic collection under its roof that includes not only paintings, but also various folk art items.
Typhoon Lagoon Waterpark
Once a small provincial town Orlando is now known as one of the most popular family recreation and entertainment centers on the planet. What is its secret? It’s not its rich history and ancient monuments, which are practically non-existent here.
Miami Aquarium
Swimming with dolphins and seals, feeding sharks and rays, stroking penguins, and diving into the colorful world of coral reefs, the Miami Aquarium brings the wildest fantasies to life. When it opened in 1955, it was the largest oceanarium in the world.
The Venice Walkway
In Biscayne Bay, between Miami and its resort suburb of Miami Beach, stretches a chain of Venetian Islands connected by bridges. The unusual structure stands in place of the wooden Collins Bridge that in 1913 connected Miami Beach with the Florida Peninsula.
Villa Vizcaya
Villa Viscaya (now the Viscaya Museum and Gardens) in Coconut Grove was once owned by businessman James Deering. It is a beautiful architectural and landscape complex that also includes extensive Italian Renaissance-style gardens, original woodland landscaping, and historic buildings.
Wynwood Art District
Didn’t make it to the annual Basel Art? That’s okay: in the Wynwood Art District, even without special events, you can see enough art at a time to get Stendhal syndrome for a long time. There are more than 70 galleries, 5 museums, 7 art complexes, and 12 art studios in the area.
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
One of the most colorful and interesting parks of the huge entertainment region of Orlando will not leave indifferent those for whom the incomprehensible and somewhat complicated words like “quidditch”, “hogwarts”, “hogsmil”, “gryffindor”, “pufendui” and the like are not just a random set of vowels and consonants.
