Things to do in Miami

MuseumPhoto: Wikimedia Commons (Coco Grove FL Vizcaya mansion01.jpg)
Vizcaya Museum and Gardens
A farm-equipment heir built this 1916 Italian Renaissance villa to suggest he'd always owned one. Seventy rooms of European antiques, formal gardens, and a bay-side breakwater barge that's either Venice-inspired or Venice-stolen.
🕒 Wed–Mon 9:30am–4:30pm
~2.7 km away

MuseumPhoto: Wikimedia Commons (PAMM MRD 23.jpg)
Pérez Art Museum Miami
Herzog & de Meuron designed this waterfront museum with hanging gardens suspended over Biscayne Bay, and the contemporary art inside actually keeps up. Strong Latin American focus; second Saturdays are free, the bay view is free every day.
🕒 Thu–Mon 10am–6pm
~1.5 km away

MuseumPhillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science
Opened 2017 with a planetarium, multi-story aquarium viewable from below, and a living coral reef display that makes other science museums look underprepared. Modern, walkable from downtown, and genuinely worth a half-day.
🕒 Daily 9am–6pm
~2.7 km away

Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden
Eighty-three acres of rare tropical palms, cycads, and orchids — serious horticulture, no flamingo photo ops. The butterfly conservatory and rare fruit grove make it the kind of garden you stay three hours in without planning to.
