South Beach is glitz and parties, but in the heart of it is this wonderful, poetic, sculptural phenomenon. Definitely worth the few minutes it takes to get there and the short -- if moving -- time it takes to take it in. More

I visited the Holocaust Memorial in Miami Beach, Florida and it was a very moving experience. To see the wall with all the names on it was just so mind bending.
