Parrot Jungle, Miami

With a population of over 400,000, Miami is Florida's largest city, and in many ways, its most popular. A hub for tourism, television, music and finance, it is ranked as a global city for its importance in these fields. With a skyline that ranks third the US, behind only New York and Chicago, in 2008 Miami was ranked the third richest city in America.

Miami, of course, is most famous for its many beaches. One of the most popular tourist destinations in the United States, the city's neighbouring municipality of Miami Beach is an important location for sun and surf enthusiasts. Fed by the warm current of the Gulf Stream, these beaches stay warm and mild all year round, making it a great place to spend a few weeks during the winter.

Of course, the beach is not all there is to see in Miami. Featuring a vibrant performing arts culture that revolves around the Adrienne Arsht Centre for the Performing Arts, the city is home to the Florida Grand Opera, which also finds its home at centre. The building houses the Sanford and Dolores Ziff Ballet Opera House, the John S. and James L. Knight Concert Hall, and the Carnival Studio Theatre, making it a great place to catch a variety of different performances.

A tourist city at heart, Miami also features many museums including the Frost Art Museum, the Historical Museum of Southern Florida, the Lowe Art Museum, and the Miami Children's Museum. Of course, with over 80 parks, including the famous Bayfront Park, the city is also the perfect place for a stroll. Nature lovers will also be thrilled to hear that Miami is the only major US city that is bordered by two national parks, the Everglades National Park on the west, and Biscayne National Park on the east.

With year round sunshine, and a mild tropical climate, it is no wonder that Miami is such a popular tourist destination. However, don't let its many beaches fool you - there is more to the city than just the surf. Featuring a plethora of different natural and cultural locations to visit, Miami has something in store for every kind of tourist.
