The basics
This revitalized neighborhood continues to evolve, with more and more luxury brands like Givenchy, Valentino, Dolce & Gabbana, Giorgio Armani, and Van Cleef & Arpels opening up shop. The long-term dream for the district is for it to exist as a renowned destination for cutting-edge fashion, art, design, and culture, while maintaining its commitment to creative experiences.
Free guided tours of the neighborhood’s public art are available, as well as tours that explore a combination of Midtown Miami, the Design District, and the Wynwood Art District.

When to get there
In December, the district sees an influx of visitors thanks to a constellation of international annual art fairs including Art Basel and Design Miami/. For art lovers, this is prime time to visit, but it is also the most crowded time. Overall, shopping hours vary in the district but are generally from 10am until 7pm.
Vizcaya Museum and Gardens
Located south of downtown Miami in Coconut Grove, the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens is another popular attraction for art and architecture lovers. The ornate Italian Renaissance-style estate features 15th- to 19th-century furniture, paintings, and decorative arts, with contemporary art exhibits sprinkled throughout. Its grounds, which border Biscayne Bay, also offer plenty to explore.
