Photo Essay: Italian Renaissance in The Heart of Miami

Photo Essay: Italian Renaissance in The Heart of Miami

To all my dear readers, sorry I haven't been posting new adventures lately. I have been swamped with new work and being so busy with wedding stuff. So looking back at my travel photos has become one of my little breaks from all the busy insanity in my life at the moment. Today I just wanted to share some beautiful photos I took from Vizcaya Museum and Gardens a couple months ago. Why did I choose to share these? Because it's one of the most popular venues in South Florida for weddings, shows, and events. It's so romantic that it has become a popular spot for engagement and wedding photos. While I'm preparing my wedding in Mexico I feel the need to write a post of another popular place for weddings in the states.

Vizcaya Museum and Garden was built in 1914 overlooking the Biscayne Bay in Miami. It was built to look like the James Deering's Italian Renaissance Villa. There's so much to see and explore at this place. I wandered around the gardens, enjoyed the beauty and felt like the moment was frozen in time. Its history and the architectural beauty is so breath-taking. It's a definite must to visit this stunningly beautiful estate when you go to Miami next time.

These photos are beautiful. The location feels like a world away somewhere in the Mediterranean perhaps. Makes me want to go.

Loved this tour of these places in my home state!! And your photography brilliantly captures your experience and the magnificent architecture. Love the pic of your hubby-to-be looking out from the arch. So evocative!!

Wow, you would almost say there is no need to go to Italy, just stay in Miami… almost… still, a great location on the other side of the ocean from Italy.
