Forget going to the mall to watch a movie! Consider attending our city's most elegant historic landmark, Vizcaya Museum & Garden. Built by agricultural industrialist James Deering in 1916, Vizcaya Museum & Gardens features a main house, ten acres of formal gardens, and a vast area of native forest.
