Miami is home to the world’s largest collection of Art Deco Architecture, making it one of the most ideal places to take some insta photos with a killer aesthetic! It’s a city that is so creatively expressed, and so beautifully decorated, that there really isn’t a better background for your pictures than the city of Miami. Here are some of the most Instagram-worthy spots you have to check out next time you’re in Miami!
1. Wynwood Walls
Is this really an ‘Instagram-worthy spots’ post if the first place isn’t Wynwood? The ever-famous Wynwood Walls is the perfect place to take Instagram pictures, mainly because there are over 40 amazing, cutting-edge murals created by street artists from around the world. With so many walls of varying designs and styles to choose from within this outdoor museum, Wynwood is an amazing location to go to.

2. Pérez Art Museum
The Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) is not only beautiful on the inside, but the outside too. The building has a modern exterior, but the splashes of greenery from hanging plants creates a beautiful juxtaposition that would be a perfect backdrop. It’s not your typical “stuffy” museum, but an interactive setting that really involves the visitors with wonderful outdoor installations that can be great for a photo op.

The Basement in Miami is a neon-lit dream! There are bright lights, neon lights and even a disco ball within the popular ice-skating rink and bowling alley. The mix of modern and retro creates a very unique vibe for your next insta photoshoot! All in all, it’s a pretty lit place (see what I did there?)

4. Miami Beach Lifeguard Tower
Miami beaches are a must-see. The ocean breeze through your hair and the sand in between your toes is the best feeling ever. The second best feeling is finding one of the cute lifeguard towers to take a picture at! These brightly colored structures have a really great color-block situation that creates a very vibrant, eye-catching background for your instas. So strike a pose!
