Not Just Carpet

Journey through the outdoor oasis known as the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden. This particular botanical garden is home to a large collection of rare tropical plants, including palms, cycads, flowering trees, fruit trees, and a variety of others. With literally thousands of plants in bloom, you could spend hours exploring this garden.

Enjoy an intimate performance at the Manuel Artime Theater, one of the area's smallest theaters. Though the venue is small, the stage is rather large, making this venue perfect for dance, theater, opera and symphony presentations. The up-close entertainment experience offered here is one that you won't want to miss, especially if you're an avid theater fan.

There's plenty to do outdoors at the Everglades National Park and Shark Valley Visitor Center. From guided tours to hiking and biking, canoeing and kayaking, fishing and camping, you'll get your fill of nature here in the country's largest subtropical wilderness.
