Featuring pieces by artists from different parts of the world, the Wynwood Walls is a gallery any street art enthusiast could quite literally lose themselves in. When here, tour the unique place to explore striking street murals and shop for some fantastic art souvenirs such as postcards, stickers, magnets, and more.

Steeped in history, from the Tequesta Indians to the pioneers of the 1890s and industrialist Charles Deering himself, this area of Cutler, has long attracted people to its unique natural setting. Nestled off Biscayne Bay, the Charles Deering Estate today encompasses a rich tapestry of rare plants, tropical hammocks, and endangered coastal scrub forests. Immerse yourself in the estate's past by touring the historic Stone House, designed by Phineas Paist and others, and the charming 19th-century Richmond Cottage. Explore the Cutler Burial Mound, a silent testament to the area's early inhabitants. The ticket office offers interesting souvenirs to commemorate your visit.
This historic cemetery has been around since 1887 with its first reported burial being ten years later, making it the oldest cemetery in the entire Miami-Dade County. The cemetery grounds were originally separated; one part for whites and one for blacks. Cemetery plot owners actually hold deeds to the land of their plot, but only the deed holder or his/her family is allowed to be buried there. Many of Miami's founders and prominent figures are buried at the cemetery, including Julia Tuttle (a.k.a. the Mother of Miami).
