The 6 Best Specialty Museums in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (FL)
"The Miami Beach Botanical Gardens was originally a municipal park that opened in the early ’60s; it wasn’t until decades later when the area was redesigned and rejuvenated that it became the fantastic attraction that it is now. Designed by one of the state’s most renowned landscape architects, the gardens are an urban oasis filled with fountains, art, and an amazingly diverse array of plants, trees, and flowers, most of which are species native to Florida. The grounds include a Japanese garden, warden gardens, plenty of shaded seating areas, and well-marked pathways that lead to each distinct area."
"Option #2 – Miami Beach Botanical Garden This lovely oasis in the heart of South Beach showcases a variety of tropical blooms. Special events such as concerts, art exhibits and a green market take place at Miami Beach Botanical Garden throughout the year. Come see collections of orchids, palms, bromeliads, flowering trees and the lovely Japanese Garden."
"A fun and totally FREE activity to do while visiting Miami Beach is the Miami Beach Botanical Garden. Here you’ll find all the lush tropical vibes that will make you feel like you stepped right into a jungle. And of course you’ll find all sorts of instagrammable corners!"
"If you need to escape Miami’s madness, consider a green day in one of the country’s largest tropical botanical gardens. A butterfly grove, tropical plant conservatory and gentle vistas of marsh and keys habitats, plus frequent art installations from artists like Roy Lichtenstein, are all stunning. In addition to easy-to-follow, self-guided walking tours, a free 45-minute tram tours the entire park on the hour from 10am to 3pm (till 4pm weekends)."
"Review: "It truly is one of Miami's best kept secrets. The point is so beautiful ...". Type: Tourist attraction. Near The Kampong, National Tropical Botanical Garden:"
"Address: 201 SW 5th Ave, Fort Lauderdale FL 33312 | Phone: (954) 462-0222 | Website. Just across the street from the Museum of Discovery and Science is the Performing Arts Broward Center. This picturesque hall is one of Florida’s premier theatres for a play, dance performance, concert, and other family-friendly events."
"Located in downtown Fort Lauderdale, The Broward Center for the Performing Arts regularly hosts concerts and performances by top artists from around the world."
"The shining beacon of historic buildings of Miami is located right in the middle of Downtown. The recently restored 1926 silent movie palace, complete with baroque balconies and red velvet curtains, exudes charisma. The Olympia Theater hosts film screenings, concerts, art exhibits, and other events under a simulated night sky ceiling graced by Elvis Presley, B.B. King, Luciano Pavarotti, and many others."
"Situated in the center of downtown Miami, Olympia has a 1920s vibe. The building makes for some great images. Tell your photography assistant to take the picture from across the street."
"A Florida favorite, Bonefish Grill combats the backwoods stigma of seafood restaurants with its hip environs. With four locations in Broward County, the Plantation location is just blocks from the BB&T Center and Sawgrass Mills Mall. Its strong popularity also gives credence to a tasty menu."
"From the team behind culinary behemoth Zuma comes LPM Miami, an equally chic high-end French brasserie with Mediterranean touches. Guests at this Brickell spot can expect to dine among the socialite crowd and business crowds, who are all in search of one thing: delicious food. Stars of the menu include the creamy burrata, fresh yellowtail carpaccio, and melt-in-your-mouth traditional escargot, but don’t forget to save room for light-as-air cheesecake."
"Restaurants French Brickell. Make any celebration at home special with takeout from LPM in Brickell. Not only is the food from this fine-dining, French/Mediterranean restaurant excellent but so is the handpainted burlap tote bag in which it arrives."
"Restaurants French Brickell"
"Back in Coral Gables we have yet another French bistro for you to add to your daily rotation. Frenchie’s Diner has been serving up the classic lunch and dinner staples every day but Sunday and Monday. This charming locale has everything you want from a neighborhood Brasserie–from a low-key diner atmosphere, an owner that knows you by name, and solid comfort food that never fails."
