Description
Two free admission to Vizcaya Museum and Gardens.
Vizcaya is a National Historic Landmark and museum owned by Miami-Dade County and accredited by the American Association of Museums. Vizcaya is open to the public 364 days each year to visit this serene and stunningly beautiful retreat in the heart of Miami.
Built by agricultural industrialist James Deering in 1916, Vizcaya Museum & Gardens features a Main House, ten acres of formal gardens, and a rockland hammock (native forest).
A visit to Vizcaya will arouse your senses! First, you'll pass through Vizcaya’s lush subtropical forest and approach the Main House along a walkway lined with fountains and foliage. The inside of the house is filled with treasures from around the world. Hear Vizcaya's 1917 pipe organ played Monday through Friday from 12 noon to 12:30 p.m. Outside, you'll enjoy spectacular views of Biscayne Bay, colorful orchids in the David A. Klein Orchidarium, and our serene gardens and the statues that inhabit them.
Vizcaya is located at 3251 South Miami Avenue in the north Coconut Grove area of the City of Miami, overlooking a wide expanse of Biscayne Bay. Vizcaya is conveniently located just ¼ mile off of I-95, one mile from downtown Miami, and 10 miles from south Miami Beach.
