Considering years ago you couldn't drive through this neighborhood without getting shot at, what the Haitian community has done is remarkable. Still, it's just another Miami neighborhood, with not much to see except the MOCA (Miami Museum of Contemporary Art)

Nothing much. Just like Calle Ocho, its worth a view, and passing through. If you are from Haiti, maybe you should stop by and try the local cuisine, in case you're missing home. The neighborhood needs some investment / improvement, but they're working on it.

Only go down here in a car everything is so spread out that if you take a bus or taxi there is no one place to go. Little Haiti is a very dangerous part of Miami but during the day you should be fine! You are either going to like it or not like it at all. Dont plan a... More

Nothing to see here but a bunch of run down buildings in a large section that Haitians care little about maintaining. Pretty sad... sad that I live near it and have to drive through it all the time too.

The area is runned down w/ lots of homeless loitering about & several of voodoo shops. In recent years they've tried to clean up the area & bring it's old splendor back but it's taking a long time. The art galleries in nearby downtown & mid town are slowly trickling into this little city so I'm hoping it's only a... More

I have also lived in Coconut Grove, Spain and the Greek Islands, And what I have learned here is that beauty has nothing to do of what you see outside of you but inside reflected on others. Really don't... More

While vacationing in Miami I wanted to visit little Haiti and just by chance my boyfriend and I drove through. What we saw was awful! It was like we could feel the pain of despair while driving through the area. The housing was dilapidated and the streets were dirty. The area is not developed like the rest of Miami. We... More
