Top 5 Things To Do in High Pines | Ponce Davis

 Despite their favorable central location, a walking distance to an array of shops and dining spots in South Miami, you'll rarely hear of High Pines and Ponce Davis as famous tourist destinations. 

In fact, some don't even consider them Miami tourist areas. 

These two areas are more known as residential. 

The High Pines neighborhood nestled between South Miami and the Ponce Davis area, conveniently located in the center of the City Pleasant, boasting wide, tree-shaded boulevards and neighborhood residential streets, and Ponce Davis, a suburban pocket within an already-notable surrounding area, tucked away from the bustling metropolis but close to downtown Miami and the financial district. 

 But your perception of these neighborhoods can all change, though, after scrolling through this blog. *wink*  

  Although High Pines and Ponce Davis are residential areas with no restaurants or shopping areas, there are plenty of places to go to that are extremely close in Coral Gables, South Miami, Pinecrest, and Kendall.
