"The Pérez can claim fine rotating exhibits that concentrate on post-WWII international art, but just as impressive are its location and exterior. This art institution inaugurated Museum Park, a patch of land that oversees the broad blue swath of Biscayne Bay. Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron designed the structure, which integrates tropical foliage, glass and metal – a melding of tropical vitality and fresh modernism that is a nice architectural analogy for Miami itself."

Though the concerts are virtual for the time being, the exhibits are still open and ready for visitors."

"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."

"A multi-course adventure where you wash your hands with chocolate Though this ultra-modern Colombian spot from chef Juanma Barrientos sits tucked away behind a condo tower on the Miami River, its environs aren’t inherently romantic. But when the second course of this nine-course journey has you and your date washing your hands in chocolate then licking it off, you’ll see why it’s the rare meal that is as much an adventure as it is dinner. You’ll spend a couple hours discovering Barrientos artful creations, from a tree sculpture made of traditional Colombian bread to exquisitely-designed meat courses."
