Miami

The terrain around Miami is a flat, low-lying coastal plain beside Biscayne Bay, which has shaped both its dense waterfront development and its economy of trade, tourism and maritime services. The Miami River meets the bay near downtown, where high-rise Brickell and the central business district mark the city’s modern core. PortMiami, on islands in Biscayne Bay, is a major cruise and cargo port. Miami’s Cuban-American heritage is especially present in Little Havana, centred on Calle Ocho, while the 1925 Freedom Tower became an important reception centre for Cuban refugees in the 1960s.
