"In Homestead, about a 40-minute drive from Downtown Miami, Coral Castle stands as a tantalizing mystery for architecture lovers. The oolite limestone structure (yes, its name is a bit of a misnomer) was built under the cover of night by a lone man, Edward Leedskalnin, who somehow—still, nobody quite knows how—managed to carve 1,000 tons of rock into a walled sculpture garden as a tribute to the fiancée who called off their engagement just a day before the wedding." - Jennifer M.
