It's not often you see a lovely old house and gardens in the USA and i'll wager this is about as close as you can get. Such a grand house, what a lavish lifestyle mr. deering must have lived, and the gardens are lovely too. Huge so be prepared to spend quite some time there! Probably not a great place for kids.

This must be the best kept secret in miami, with not even a sign pointing the way to it so make sure you have a good map! The reward is beautiful gardens and lakes witha ridiculous number of amazing birds. Watch out got the remaing of the old zoo that was there before too!

This is a little slice of Miami past and a beautiful place to visit. The mansion looks like a renaissance paradise which makes it all the more bizarre set amid the palm trees. The gardens are probably the best thing about a visit here as they are arranged on several levels with coral walls and beautiful plants. The dock area is also very attractive.

This is a historic landmark from 1910. The property has hosted visiting foreign dignitaries as well as royalty. There is a museum with rich history as well as beautiful gardens to explore. Great time for families.
