Key West

🏖️ Stay in a sea view room when you come to the beach! We stayed at the Waldorf Astoria Casa Marina Key West, which is under the Hilton brand. Although this hotel is a bit old-fashioned, both its location and facilities are first-class. The lobby and exterior are also very retro (forgot to take photos), which is very characteristic of Key West Island. If you plan to visit Key West Island, it is really highly recommended. The breakfast at this place is very fresh and delicious, and the wine is also good. The ubiquitous roosters are also a unique feature of Key West! It is definitely a place to come back to again!

Location: Key West, Florida The Hemingway House, one of Key West's most popular spots, was once the home of the celebrated American author, who lived here for more than a decade. You can wander around the largely preserved rooms and tour the lush, lovely gardens. The home is filled with Hemingway memorabilia—photos, books, and furniture—that played a part in his South Florida life. There are free guided tours every 30 minutes. Entrance to the museum is by cash only, no credit cards accepted. $17 for adults, $7 for children. I got to know about Ernest Hemingway when I was traveling in Cuba years ago and visited one of his favourite bars in Havana.

Located in the south of Miami, Key West can travel through the most beautiful coastline. Arrive at Key West and stroll around Duval Street and take a photo with the Southernmost Point Buoy, and head to Mallory Square for a spectacular view at sunset. Go to the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum to learn about the life of the master and greet the six-toed cat. After leaving the former residence, choose a water project operating company to experience paragliding and other projects or return to Miami by car. Southernmost Point Buoy , the southernmost point of the United States, is known as the End of the World and is only 90 miles from Cuba. It is the most famous landmark Hemingway House and Museum in Key West, and you will not only further Know the life and works of the master, and you will also see the famous six-toed cat.

Upon entering Key West, a lively and leisurely atmosphere hits you. The city's small streets are filled with various souvenir shops, inns, and coffee houses, the most popular of which is a restaurant. This place, known as the southernmost building in the United States, has been visited by as many as 17 U.S. presidents. Walking along Duval Street to the southernmost point of Key West, people will see a painted, top-like 'southernmost point' sign of the United States. It is only 144 kilometers from the opposite coast of Cuba. It is recorded that Cuba's national hero Jose Marti lived in the United States for 15 years. In 1895, he led the Cubans to resist the Spanish colonists, and he personally commanded and participated in the battle, finally sacrificing himself on the front line. It is said that Marti's uprising order was sent back to Cuba from Key West in a cigar. Driving to Key West is a unique experience. Along Highway 1, there are more than 200 kilometers along the way, many places on land are only as wide as the road, and the sea is on both sides of the road. There are many bridges along the way to connect the islands that are too far apart, the longest of which is 11.2 kilometers. People can see the spectacular view of the long bridge across the sea from a long distance. As early as 1905, Key West was the most populous city in Florida, and building a smooth traffic route became a very important project. At that time, American industrial tycoon Henry Flagler formulated an ambitious blueprint, he decided to extend the railway to Key West. Hemingway is one of the most famous writers in the United States, many of his works, such as 'The Snows of Kilimanjaro', were completed in the small town of Key West. Hemingway's former residence in Key West was built in 1851 and is located on Whitehead Street in the small town. Across the street is a tall lighthouse, the light on the tower not only guides the ships at sea, but also helps Hemingway, the often drunk great writer, find his home.

Did you know that Key West was once a more prosperous city than NYC and Chicago? 😯⛵️ In the 19th century, locals would deceive sailors and boaters by guiding them into shallow waters, intentionally causing their boats to become stuck. They would then offer their services to rescue the stranded vessels for a fee. This unethical practice, known as "wrecking," allowed some families to amass great wealth through salvage operations. Even when the federal government stepped in to regulate the issue by installing markers to indicate shallow areas, locals would secretly move these buoys and markers at night to continue profiting from stranded sailors ;) Key West has a rich history of shipwrecks, with over 1,000 sunken vessels surrounding the island. This has turned it into a paradise for divers, who can explore an underwater museum of ships dating back as far as the 17th century. During our visit, we had an amazing time snorkeling, kayaking, and sailing with @danger_charters. They provided us with captivating stories and made the experience truly memorable. I highly recommend trying out this adventure when you're in Key West.
