Vizcaya Museum & Gardens

1 of 3

The Vizcaya Museum and Gardens is a popular attraction located in the Coconut Grove district. It was originally built in the early 1900s as a winter house for businessman James Deering.

It now functions as a museum, housing works of art ranging from the 15th to the 19th centuries. Recent visitors were impressed by the mood and architecture, which were essential components of the experience. Much of the original home (which covers 38,000 feet) is still standing and has an interesting collection of old furnishings. However, for many visitors, the stunning gardens are unquestionably the highlight of any visit here. The gorgeous gardens, according to visitors, are reminiscent of historic European houses.

You may explore the attraction at your leisure or get an audio tour for $5. For $5, guided 45-minute tours of the main home and grounds are also offered. Daily tours are available at 10:30 a.m., 11:30 a.m., 12:30, 1:30, and 2:30 p.m.
