Ybor city is the dream destination for history buffs, cigar lovers, architecture enthusiasts and party animals alike. One of the oldest cities in Florida, it is a National Historic Landmark District, famous for its vintage everything: cars, buildings, movie theatres... it looks just like a quintessential 1950s American town.

If you’re looking for a whiff of history, head down to the Tampa Sweetheart Cigars shop, which is run by one of America’s oldest cigar-making families, Arturo Fuente. The museums are also a must-go, with the Ybor City Museum State Park showcasing the district’s cultural heritage and the Baseball Museum explaining Tampa’s role is shaping baseball history.

By night, the historical hub transforms into a rocking party destination. The 7th Avenue nightclubs promise a night of good music and raving dance parties, while more tame visitors can watch the revelry from the cosy seats of the late-night diners lining the streets.
