"The Wynwood Walls was conceived by the renowned community revitalizer and placemaker, the late Tony Goldman in 2009. He was looking for something big to transform the warehouse district of Wynwood, and he arrived at a simple idea:. “Wynwood’s large stock of warehouse buildings, all with no windows, would be my giant canvases to bring to them the greatest street art ever seen in one place."

"Our last day was spent at the creative Wynwood Walls art exhibit. Beautiful mosaics are spread across a few blocks on streets and on buildings, even on the sidewalks!"

"The Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) has come a long way since its inception as a single gallery space in 1981. Now one of Miami’s most beloved cultural institutions, the MOCA hosts around eight to 10 special exhibits a year alongside its stellar permanent collections. Among those showcased in the MOCA permanent collection are Keith Haring, Gabriel Orozco and José Bedia, with the collection boasting a whopping 500 works of art."

"Located in North Miami, MOCA was founded in 1981 in an effort to bring contemporary art to an underserved population. This art museum in Miami blends the works of newly discovered artists with the beauty and history of the masters. MOCA has 8-10 exhibits throughout the year, and approximately 600 permanent works."

"Miami may feel like a party all the time, but there are plenty of museums and institutions around to give the kids a bit of education on your trip. The HistoryMiami Museum is the largest history museum in Florida and is conveniently located in downtown Miami — and it is definitely worth checking out. This Smithsonian Affiliate is home to some great local exhibits including the “Miami International Airport: A Hub for History,” “Tropical Dream: A People’s History of South Florida,” and more."

"HistoryMiami doesn't sound like the name of a historical museum, which is exactly what its board members had in mind. The less-bulky name signified a new direction for what was previously called the Historical Museum of Southern Florida. Today, the museum, which actually began as a historical association in 1940 continues to offer the exhibits that were developed throughout the previous decades, as well as incorporating new ones."

"Delving on the idea of new-age art fusion with the traditional essence of art, Artechhouse is one of its kind in Miami, established by Sandro and Tati in 2015. Opened at multiple locations in the United States, the vision of Artechhouse is to bring together the aura of art and the magnificence of science and technology, forming an immersive art experience for a lifetime. Introducing new artforms while supporting experimentation with a multimedia art experience, Arthouse is currently exhibiting Pantone’s Color of the Year: Classic Blue exhibition."

"The building opened in 1925 and became a US National Historic Landmark in 2008.* It’s an impressive landmark. It first started as headquarters for the newspaper Miami News. It now is a contemporary art museum."

"Another newcomer on the scene, Piero Atchugarry Gallery is grounded in the works of Pablo Atchugarry – a renowned Uruguayan sculptor and gallerist Piero’s father. The accompanying program often includes works by avant-garde Italian sculptors. Piero Atchugarry’s Little Haiti compound also experiments with exhibitions by emerging and mid-career artists, and historic works."

"Located just down the street from Mindy Solomon Gallery, Tile Blush – “a concept reamigined from the remnants of Noguchi Breton, formerly VersaceVersaceVersace and GucciVuitton” – represents those whose work blurs the line between architecture and art. Often minimalist in its curatorial approach, Tile Blush displays painting, sculpture and furnishings in dialog with one another."

"Throughout the late 1960s and early 1970s, in large cities across the United States, children invented a new art form that began by writing their names on the walls of their neighborhoods. Fifty years later, the Graffiti Museum was formed to preserve the history of graffiti and celebrate its emergence in design, fashion, advertising, and galleries. The museum experience includes an indoor exhibition space, eleven outdoor murals, a fine art gallery, and a world-class gift store featuring limited edition merchandise and exclusive items from the world’s most talented graffiti artists."

"In business since 1991 and located at the rear of the hotel lobby, overlooking the Sealine Marina, this elegant Chinese establishment has earned a solid reputation for its attentive tableside service, white tablecoth-and-fresh-flower decor, and consistently excellent Hong Kong-style Cantonese cuisine. On one side, you have a view of the sunken kitchen sealed by a glass wall, where you can watch the expert chefs whip up masterful concoctions. On the other side of the open, airy dining room, you get sprawling views of Biscayne Bay and the Venetian Isles."

"Restaurants Chinese Omni. This nondescript, banquet hall-style restaurant does Chinese food for Americans, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing if exotic cuisine isn’t your thing. Don’t miss Tony Chan’s Peking duck and its fried fish drizzled with the chef’s special sweet-and-sour sauce."

"Internationally renowned Chinese Restaurant in Miami, FL located inside the Doubletree Grand Hotel lobby, next to Biscayne Bay and the Sea Isles Marina"

"Restaurants Chinese Midtown. Perhaps more notable for its glitterati crowds and over-the-top decor than its food, this international upscale chain does do several Chinese dishes exceptionally well. Much is still said about Mr Chow’s signature chicken satay, hand-pulled Singapore-style noodles and crispy duck, which are flavorful, delicately portioned and accompanied by a hefty price tag."

"A mix of old-school elegance and traditional recipes sets Mr. Chow apart as one of Miami’s chicest Chinese spots. Diners can feel fancy under a swank lighting fixture while munching on scallion pancakes, Mr. Chow Noodles, and a Peking duck that justifies the splurge. Available for dine-in, delivery, or takeout."
