15 Best Things to Do in Homestead (Florida
"Located just off South Dixie Highway in Homestead, the Coral Castle Museum is a unique outdoor attraction that was built by a local man entirely from local limestone. It’s still a mystery how he moved and manipulated the massive limestone blocks used in the castle’s construction; some have suggested he may have had extraterrestrial help. Though the verdict is still out on that claim, there’s no doubt that it’s a popular attraction with children and adults alike, and it’s one of those one-of-a-kind Florida attractions that you won’t see elsewhere."

Top things to do in Florida
"‘You will be seeing unusual accomplishment,’ reads the inscription on the rough-hewn quarried wall. That’s an understatement. There is no greater temple to all that is weird and wacky about South Florida. The legend: a Latvian gets snubbed at the altar. Comes to the USA and settles in Florida. Handcarves, unseen, in the dead of night, a monument to unrequited love."

The 10 Most Beautiful Parks in Miami
"The Barnacle Historic State Park is home to the oldest house in Miami|© William Silver / Shutterstock. Also in Coconut Grove, this fairly small park tops our list for having the oldest house in its original location in Miami. Visitors can tour the 1891 home, The Barnacle, to learn about the frontier life during the “Era of the Bay” at a time when all travel to the city was done by boat."

The best American restaurants in Miami for classic comfort food
"4 out of 5 stars Restaurants Contemporary American Downtown. Overlooking Biscayne Bay from the covered deck of the Pérez Art Museum Miami, this simple eatery appears to be nothing more than a museum restaurant with a good view. But sit down and try one of Executive Chef Kaytlin Dangaran’s trendy plates—such as the butternut squash and fig pizza—and you’ll be tempted to stick around long after you’ve perused the art."

"In Miami’s historic MiMo District, Blue Collar has been serving up some of the best comfort food dishes in the city for nearly seven years (wow!) though it feels like just yesterday Chef Daniel Serfer arrived on the scene. He opened Mignonette, another instant success, just two years after Blue Collar. The brunch menu consists of Eggy Stuff, Syrupy Stuff, Othery Stuff, Sandwichy Stuff, and Salady Stuff and please believe us when we say you can’t go wrong no matter what your palate fancies."

"To capture the stories of the marginalized communities, Spinello projects under the ownership of Anthony Spinello are attracting many eyes in Miami and the international world. Projecting ongoing political scenarios through art is an appreciated characteristic of Spinello Projects. Being a nomadic art gallery owner, Arthur Spinello by now had ten shifted stores in Miami and the earlier Spinello Gallery is now shut down."
