If you want a taste of authentic downtown Miami, you have to take a trip down Lincoln Road. It’s absolutely the most happening place in Florida, with every sort of attraction you could dream of. Where once it was completely open to vehicular traffic, it has now been converted into a pedestrian road, privileging tourists like yourself who want to take their time and enjoy the dazzling sights around them. With numerous sleek glass and concrete buildings glinting in the noonday sun by the side of the road, you would hardly believe that this road used to be a forest of mangroves. Its appearance is already very much changed from the ‘90s, when it was an underground hangout for artists, its pavements lined with galleries and studios. Today, it has become the road most travelled, with the whole of Miami coming here to shop, dine and celebrate the vibrancy of their city. There’s always something intriguing happening around the next corner, whether it’s a parade of colourful street performers or just a local with a snake wrapped casually around their neck. Whatever it is, you’re bound to have a whale of a time.
