Tampa
Sprawling and businesslike, Tampa lacks the iconic downtown skyline and cultural buzz
that gives Miami its distinct persona. Therefore, it's surprising to learn that so many new
museums, parks and gourmet South Tampa restaurants have popped up recently that the
city is dangerously close to becoming stylish. In the heart of downtown, the revitalized
Riverwalk along the Hillsborough River glitters with contemporary architecture and scenic
green spaces. Plus, between the zoo, the aquarium, the children's museums and the theme
parks, families have enough top-shelf entertainment to last a week. By evening Ybor City's
streets transform into Southwest Florida's hottest bar and nightclub scene.
