Enjoy Miami’s wonderful parade this winter

There are plenty of things to see and do in Miami
This December, travelers who love to immerse themselves in local cultures and traditions should make plans for a trip to Miami, Florida, on their next North American vacation. At the end of the month, the annual King Mango Strut Parade will take place on the streets of Coconut Grove, a lively district located in the city of Miami.

For almost three decades, colorful locals in the area have been organizing a truly peculiar parade featuring talented performers and participants dressed in vibrant costumes, reports the event’s website. The promenade was developed in response to the King Orange parade that no longer takes place in town, as some revelers felt left out because their strange skills were not appreciated.

Now, spectators and participants of all ages can do what they please and gather together in celebration of the kooky and quirky. Travelers may see performers on stilts, people dressed in tie-dye outfits or others impersonating Elvis and Marilyn Monroe.

While in Miami, travelers may also wish to visit the scenic Fairchild Botanical Garden for a look into the natural beauty of the region, reports World Travel Guide. This park boasts nearly a dozen lakes and ponds, some of which have stunning waterfalls and lilies
