Our county used to be Dade County. Dade refers to a Major Dade, an army officer who was killed during the "Seminole Wars" in the nineteenth century. The name of the county was changed about ten years ago to better reflect the geopolitical situation here.

If you wish to sense specific in an unique holyday then Miami is your place, exactly like you will see with hotelbye . The resorts and the ancient hideaways of Coral Gables from Miami will surely impress you just like the popular Ocean Drive. Ocean Drive operates across the oceanfront in Miami Beach, passing the historic Art Deco buildings and the famous strip of sand called South Beach. In Ocean Drive you are able to move both to the afternoon and to the night time for a slow cruise and some travel by sightseeing. Still another place worth visit is the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens. The structure, the grounds, and the graphics it has are typical worth the trip to see that wonderful place.
