Miami - South Beach and art deco

The day on the beach in Miami Beach, more precisely in South Beach. (Have a look at our  map). The greatest attraction is the Art Deco District.

'The Miami Beach Art Deco District

The Art Deco District in Miami Beach contains the largest concentration of 1920s and 1930s resort architecture in the world. These vibrantly colored buildings represent an era when Miami was heavily promoted and developed as a "tropical playground." The Art Deco District was one of the earliest National Register listings to recognize the importance of the architecture of this period.' 

'Art deco (/ˌɑrt ˈdɛkoʊ/), or deco, is an eclectic artistic and design style that began in Paris in the 1920s[1][2] and flourished internationally throughout the 1930s and into the World War II era.[3] The style influenced all areas of design, including 

architecture and interior design, industrial design, fashion and jewelry, as well as the visual arts such as painting, graphic arts and film.'

    Jacek and Adrian,

    Greetings from the Himalayan mountains in Nepal. I am about to get on a trek close to the Annapurna peak ... relatively speaking. Seems like your and my adventures are very different. Nevertheless, we are both experiencing adventures. Check out my email message. Happy driving in the USA.
