"Pay a visit with your little ones to the Miami’s Children Museum, which offers interactive exhibits and learning materials related to arts, literacy, culture, community and communication. The museum is for sure one of the top fun museums in Miami for families, as it has also been awarded in the past as “Best Museum in Miami” by the Miami New Times and the “Best Children’s Museum” by South Florida Parenting Magazine. Families tend to enjoy this museum, as it is an “institution” where they can play, learn, imagine and create all together."

"The Miami Children’s Museum is a non-profit institution that opened in 2003. Its 56,500-square foot facility has over 14 permanent exhibits, classrooms, and other amenities."

"Miami Mountain is a real landmark within the city and the perfect spot for a photo. Commissioned by The Bass Museum and created by Ugo Rondinone, the artist behind Nevada’s Seven Magic Mountains, this 42-foot tall neon sculpture has been coined the Eighth Magic Mountain. By positioning this fluorescent sculpture within Collins Park, Rondinone sought to add a neon rainbow color palette to the area — something that stood out amongst the existing whites and greens."

"In a wooded section at the north end of the Virginia Key Beach North Point Park, you'll find a series of short mountain bike trails, color-coded for beginner, intermediate and advanced. It's free to use the trails, though if your hotel doesn’t have free bicycle hire, you may have to stump up for that.

"This chef-driven craft ice cream shop revolves around a rotating lineup of 18 flavors, from raspberry wasabi to mint with activated charcoal. Take, for instance, Dasher & Crank's chicken and waffles flavor, which mixes chunks of chicken and waffle from Wynwood's Kush. Then there's "Coffee and Cinnamon Rolls," which uses Knaus Berry Farm's rolls and Per'la' java; and the "Fat Elvis," blended with peanut butter, banana, and Miami Smokers bacon."

"This Wynwood-based ice cream shop is continuing to serve ice cream and plenty of smiles through the pandemic. Order a cone to eat right away and a pint (or two or three, no judgement) to take home for later. Follow Dasher & Crank on Instagram to see when and where they are delivering, as lately they’ve been crossing the bridge to delivery ice cream to those on Miami Beach who place orders."

"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."

"Those wanting to see contemporary art while in Miami should really go to the Institue of Contemporary Art, Miami. Here you find all kinds of artworks from well-known artists, but the museum also likes to feature up-and-coming artists. Besides the permanent collection, the museum also has many temporary exhibitions, showcasing a diverse range of contemporary art."

"This museum in Miami's Design District offers free admission and lots of art that the kids will love exploring. Large scale sculptures, a 15,000-square-foot garden and interesting works of art by local artists are particularly interesting for kids. 61 NE 41st StMiami, FLOnline: icamiami.org"

"Situated in the heart of Wynwood Arts District, one of Miami’s most culturally askew neighborhoods, R House is a contemporary restaurant & bar as heralded for its soulful menu as it is for its bustling weekend brunch scene. The local gem will host a special  Valentine’s Day DragBrunch on Sunday, February 14 at 11:30AM and again 2:30PM. Hosted by Athena Dion (Miss Ultimate Miami Drag Queen), the Valentine’s Day Drag Brunch will feature an impressive spread of brunch items to nosh on while enjoying an extravagant, themed performance by some of Miami’s most talented drag stars."

"As a restaurant alone, R House is unique in that it is also an art gallery featuring local artists – we wouldn’t expect anything less for a restaurant in the Wynwood art district, of course. But what truly makes this a popular brunch in Miami is the Drag Brunch hosted on Saturdays and Sundays!. R House offers four different packages for brunch that include a main dish and a choice of either unlimited side dishes, bottomless brunch drinks – mimosas, white wine sangria, mojitos – a combination of both, or two sides and the bottomless drinks."

"The drag brunch at R House is a Miami Sunday tradition right up there with getting disappointed by the Dolphins. But unlike the Dolphins, R House is full of pleasant surprises, where in addition to the best drag revue in the city you’ll also get a menu that would be pretty fantastic even if it wasn’t raining men. The R Cuban Breakfast with scrambled eggs, moros y cristianos, and tostones would put you into a food coma if not for Miss Athena Dixon and her cadre of performers."
