Miami

Today, Miami is a city full of emotion, color and texture. It is hot, sexy and stimulates all the senses, evidence of the Latin culture moving forward. Miami is a thriving metropolis, called “America Casablanca,” “Magic City” and most recently, “Millennium America.”

These appellations surprise the appearance that makes it different from other American cities – its identity of a truly multicultural city. It is a gateway to Central and South America and the third most popular city for international visitors (after Los Angeles and New York). In fact, Miami is likely to be more Latino-American than just American.

Despite the fame of being a city of sunny weather, spicy nightlife and selected dining places, Miami’s beginnings are surprisingly humble. Located on the remote southern coast of Florida, between the mangrove swamp and barrier reef, Miami was founded 100 years ago, when the magnate Henry scourged and expanded the railroad to the south to bring fruit where there is no frost. During Prohibition, Al Capone came here when he was chased by the police in Chicago.

After the Second World War, the mafia moved here, then, when Fidel Castro took power, waves of Cubans fled to Miami, followed by another mass immigration in the 1980s. The cultural climate the Cubans created in Miami inspired residents of other Latin American countries (Colombia, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Nicaragua and Haiti) to seek refuge from poverty or oppressive governments and emigrate. Now, in Miami Spanish is spoken as much as English.

Everyone Can Enjoy A Day In The Sun

However, the city is one of the most modern in America – the second largest in Florida, according to Jacksonville, but the most exciting, exotic and cosmopolitan. Miami Beaches or Greater Miami contain a number of islands and mainland communities, including two cities – Miami and Miami Beach.

Much of the charm of the area is due to various districts, which extend from the skyscrapers of downtown to the trendy South Beach in Miami Beach. South Beach is probably the most renowned area with art deco buildings in candy colors against the sky blue, pastel sand beaches and palm trees wind swing. Greater Miami is also a center of commercial, financial, cultural, sports, entertainment, transport and tourism center, which is also the main source of income for the city.

Like All American Cities, The Skycrapers Are Not Missing

The flows of wealthy Latin Americans who come here affect the economy significantly. Miami is the city where they do business and many restaurant owners believe that if you own a restaurant in Los Angeles and New York is absolutely necessary to open one in Miami. The city is changing with the revitalization of downtown, and luxury apartments being built everywhere. Since real estate prices have increased exponentially, the locals are heading west, away from the beaches and the oldest and most exclusive neighborhoods.

Port of Miami is the largest marina in the world, going through more than 3.6 million passengers each year. Besides its importance for tourism, cruises, Miami Beach is famous worldwide for the strip of hotels along the “Gold Coast” and utilities for outdoor recreation. Locals give you the impression that nothing is more important than the morning run on the beach, tanning or do shopping in the afternoon, then dinner and dancing until dawn.
