Key West, the southernmost city in
the continental United States, is a tropical blend of beautiful waters, exotic
foliage, wonderful restaurants and lodging facilities and history-enriched
attractions and activities. Visitors immediately enjoy the Caribbean feel of
this island nation called the Conch Republic.
Since its founding in 1822, Key West
has gone through many phases, from pirates to poets, and carries the creative
torch of such former residents as Ernest Hemingway and Tennessee Williams.

| Sunset
Celebration takes place at Mallory Square. The participants of this Key
West attraction consist of art and crafts, exhibitors, street
performers, food carts, psychics and of course the thousands of tourists
from around the world who visit this Key West art show. Each night
around two hours before sunset masses of people, both locals and
tourists alike, flock to the water's edge to experience a multicultural
happening and to watch the sun sink into the Gulf of Mexico. |
