Things to Do in South Miami, Miami

An independent small city southwest of Miami, centered on Sunset Drive and the Metrorail. Tropical residential streets and local restaurants surround the walkable downtown, while Dante Fascell Park and the University of Miami just north give South Miami a leafy, low-rise identity distinct from the towers farther north.
