miami beach • TRAVEL
hile Miami is known for its beaches, sunshine, nightlife and celebrity visitors, there is a new city that is emerging—one that is steeped in the arts. Annually, this modern Miami hosts Art Basel, the world’s largest art fair; the Miami International Boat Show; and the South Beach Wine & Food Festival. When these luxury events aren’t in town, Miami boasts an impressive collection of museums, art galleries, music venues and performing arts centers. Cutting-edge neighborhoods like the Design District and Wynwood are leading the way in Miami’s cultural moment. Of course, no trip to Miami would be complete without visiting Miami Beach and its world-famous beaches. This is where all the hip restaurants, nightclubs and lounges are. Take a stroll on the pedestrian-friendly Lincoln Road where boutiques, cafes and gelato shops await. Yes, the sun and sand will always be the number-one attraction in this American Riviera. And that’s a beautiful thing. But when the Bain de Soleil and Prada sunglasses have been put away, there’s so much to explore in this tropical, artsy, design-oriented city.
