30. Vizcaya Museum

Initially, the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens was home to James Deering, the Deering Harvester house, which later became the International Harvester's agricultural property. When built between 1914 and 1922, it was called Villa Vizcaya. It occupies an area in the Biscayne Bay area of Miami, Florida, covering over 100 acres.

The villa is a mix of Italian Renaissance, Baroque and Mediterranean styles within the house, with extensive French and Italian gardens. Its campus also includes historic mangrove forests, which have been preserved as part of the museum and gardens. The Vizcaya Museum has been involved in many films throughout the decades.
