Photos of Miami, ‘magic city’ in the tropics

A festive, tolerant, stylish and trendy city

Miami, also known as the Magic City, is a tropical paradise in South Florida. Its unique multicultural atmosphere, magnificent art deco architecture, white sandy beaches, turquoise waters and year-round warm climate make it a must-see destination for over 24 million tourists.

Miami’s Cuban soul pulsates in the Little Havana district. Founded by Cuban immigrants, it radiates incomparable human warmth. Let yourself be transported by the Latin rhythms, authentic flavours and vibrant atmosphere of this little piece of Cuba in the heart of Miami. Change of scenery in Coral Gables, south of Miami. This exotic district will charm you with its stone bridges, romantic waterfalls and graceful colonial-style Spanish houses lining winding streets. It’s a haven of peace and romance.

Miami, a festive and tolerant city, has also forged a reputation as a trendy design city. Over the years, it has attracted artists, designers and fashion enthusiasts who contribute to its unique dynamism. Sport is king in Miami, and windsurfing and sailing are particularly popular, especially on the island of Key Biscayne. Shopping enthusiasts will not be outdone. The old quarter of Coconut Grove and Bayside, the huge shopping centre on the water opposite Downtown, will satisfy all your desires. Also in Coconut Grove, immerse yourself in history and architecture and admire the many Mediterranean-style bungalows and estates dating from the early 20th century. Don’t miss Villa Vizcaya, an Italianate Golden Age palace now converted into a museum.
