Night Market at Vizcaya

Have you always wanted to visit Miami's historic gem Vizcaya Museum & Gardens?

Vizcaya’s European-inspired gardens are reminiscent of those created in 17th and 18th-century Italy and France with the overall landscape design conceived as a series of rooms.

The main house's central area is the courtyard, which was originally open to the sky. It was designed to take full advantage of its location on Biscayne Bay and that it does, with sweeping and expansive waterfront views.

The north façade features the swimming pool, which emerges from vaulted arches at the lower level of the house while the south façade opens onto the formal gardens with enclosed loggias on the first and second floors.

Admission is usually $25 for adults 13 years and older, kids 6-12 years old $10, children 5 years and under are free but we've found admission discounts for you!
