Another change came at the age when Castro´s revolutionaries took over the leading and many of emigrants moved to Miami vitalized the city in new character. In 80´s, the downtown grew in skyscraper city of Post-modern Age.

Whether you enjoy nightlife or resting and relaxation, Miami is the right place for you. Miami is the most famous city in Florida. Everyone who ever visits Miami, Miami Beach or surrounding areas will definitely choose from a large palette of services, activities and interesting places. Some people might be worried about the go-as-you-please life but Miami and Miami Beach residents are sure you will not find any better place for your vaccation than in Miami. It is almost unbelievable how Miami faces common leaflet catchphrases such as: copper-skinned people on beaches, sensuous nightlife and hotels in Art Deco. Palm trees grow everywhere and temperatures hardly ever fall below pleasant. Another important factor is represented with the people. One third of the residents are native Hispaniens, mostly Cubans. Miami has passed discontinuous innovations to better the city during last ten years.

Miami is divided into several different quarters (Miami beach, South beach, Northern Miami Beach, Downtown Miami, Little Haiti, Key Biscayne, Little Havana, Coconut Grove...) that can be quite far from one another but there are two central quarters Miami and Miami Beach, where you can use public transport or just walk. Even that the old Miami full of crime is now only a history, its is good to know some quarters are good to stay away (Liberty City, Overtown, Little Haiti). The most attractive to tourists is a sandbank Miami Beach that is three miles off the shore where Biscayne bay protects the land against waves of Atlantic ocean. Do not omit even Miami Beach, offering amazing conditions for sun-bathing and swimming. To the north, there is Central Miami Beach, where big film stars from 50´s looked for entertainment. The downtown of Miami is full of crowds passing unheeded flashy sunblinds of shops with electronics, clothes or jewelry. When you get to the downtown, you should visit local institutions such as Historical Museum of Southern Florida or Art Museum Miami with a breathtaking exhibition of modern art.
