Little Havana is Miami’s beating heart of Cuban-American culture, where vibrant murals, the aroma of Cuban coffee, and the rhythms of salsa music fill the air. This iconic neighborhood offers a sensory overload—colorful streets, authentic eateries, cigar shops, and even free-roaming roosters bring its character to life. On the last Friday of every month, the neighborhood turns up the energy for Viernes Culturales (Cultural Fridays), a street party with live music, dancing, food, and art. For an even bigger celebration, don’t miss the legendary Calle Ocho Music Festival in March, one of the largest Latino festivals in the U.S.

Comprised of a church, a convent, and a cloister, the Convent of the Jacobins houses the remains of its patron, St Thomas Aquinas.

If you only have time to visit one church in the city, this should be it.

This extensive museum presents Estonia's history from prehistoric times right up to the end of the 20th century.
