Cruising top down Ocean Drive for an up-close look at the art deco buildings, riding Citi Bikes on Collins Ave and working out at Lummus Park are all worth doing.

But there’s a lot to the Magic City beyond the glitz and glamor of South Beach, from designer districts and gallery-filled neighborhoods.

Miami is a beautiful city with lots of fascinating areas, here are Five cool neighborhoods in Miami to see:

To this day, visitors to the neighborhood can experience a thriving neighborhood that is truly one-of-a-kind. The neighborhood’s riddled with Latin-inspired cafes, restaurants, venues and mom-and-pop stores. Here you’ll find locals grabbing an afternoon cortado or a fresh fruit batido, talking politics over a game of dominoes, or eating authentic dishes to a backdrop of ever-present Cuban beats. Little Havana offers a taste of multicultural Miami at its best.
