Welcome to Miami — the sunny southern city in the sunny state of Florida. To most
people who have never taken a Miami trip, just think of Sonny Crocket and Ricardo
Tubbs in a speedboat chasing some drug dealers. Be your own judge and take a
Miami Vacation to find out what this city
really is like: a melting pot of cultures, a warm and friendly city on one of the
most beautiful spots in the world, a city of great architecture and the perfect
starting point for exploring the rich variety of sights and sounds in
Florida.
But most people think Miami
is only a city of fun and games based just on tourism.
Miami is a lot of fun,
but it is also a huge financial center of the world.

concentration of International Banks in the United States. Miami was named a Gamma
world city based on its economic importance especially towards Latin America. U.S.
Southern Command Headquarters are in Miami, also the National Hurricane Center calls

the world! 59% of Miami residents were born outside the US. This makes Miami one

When you are in Miami, one thing is sure, you will not be bored! There are too many
Miami activities to enjoy such
as going to museums, hanging out at one of many
Miami restaurants (
http://miami.diningguide.com ) cafes,
or bars, and dancing until dawn at a hot nightclub.
Now, if you haven't taken a Miami trip for
Memorial Weekend, you are missing
out. Imagine BCR weekend in Daytona with class and about 100,000 more people.
There are three main streets where all the action can be found: Ocean, Collins,
and . All three streets are within walking distance from one another. A great place
to find excellent Miami
is along the ocean — and it's well worth the money. You're always within walking
distance to the beach, of course and a Starbucks is always nearby. Hey, did
you know you could stay in Versace's house for about $1,200.00 per night?
The beach is beautiful, the water is very warm and the view to the bottom of
the ocean is crystal clear. You can rent an umbrella and 2 lounges for about $24
for the entire day. It's not as hot as you think it would be on the beach, however.
It's actually hotter on the strip than on the beach. Collins offers plenty of shopping
and lots of expensive boutiques. The
Miami restaurants in the area are pretty amazing
as well and reasonably priced. Ocean drive restaurants may be a bit more expensive,
but the excellent cuisine and service is well worth the price tag.
The Art Deco architecture in the old section of
Miami Beach alongside
the beach is impressive and worth a leisurely stroll to view its beauty.
