Way to the Italian style villa in Coconut Grove
Villa Vizcaya
- built between 1914 & 1916
- style of the Italian Renaissance & Baroque villas
- James Deering built the house for himself
as a winter home
- apparently he was a great fan of European culture
.
Before entering the villa had some ice tea
in the cafe which was actually under renovation
as some parts of the garden
- it was said to be a great lunch spot
.
Unfortunately it's not allowed to take
any pictures inside the villa,
but it is marvellous!
Very Italian!
.

.
On the first floor there are
