The city of Fort Lauderdale provides an exhilarating atmosphere for both residents and visitors to enjoy. In addition to its gorgeous beaches and water views, Fort Lauderdale features an abundance of fine dining and shopping establishments, an array of attractions and an impressive nightlife that rivals that of its neighboring city of Miami. Popular attractions include Las Olas Boulevard and the scenic Riverwalk area. Hailed as the “Rodeo Drive” of Fort Lauderdale, Las Olas lives up to its legendary flair for fashion with its myriad of charming boutiques, trendy art galleries and upscale beachside cafes. The Riverwalk area pairs the serenity of the New River and its majestic river views with the popular attractions of the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, the Fort Lauderdale Museum of Art and the Museum of Discovery and Science that run alongside the New River. The building of new high-rise condominiums and other growth along the river has introduced a bustling nightlife to the downtown area, complete with popular entertainment venues and upscale shops and restaurants.
