Mark Zuckerberg has purchased a huge waterfront mansion in Miami for upwards of $150 million, becoming the latest tech tycoon to ditch California amid the proposed billionaire tax. The Meta CEO, 41, and wife Priscilla Chan, 40, have snapped up a sprawling new home in the ultra-exclusive gated community Indian Creek Island, known as Billionaire Bunker. The enormous three-story Spanish colonial style villa is set upon two acres of land and features wraparound terraces, a private dock and a waterfront swimming pool.

Miami is a hotbed for avant-garde fashion, design, and art, which is why people flock to the tip of the Florida peninsula every year to navigate the crowds at Art Basel and Design Miami. History buffs can explore architecture from the 1920s at the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, stroll the Deering Estate house museum, or study up on Miami's urban and environmental design at the Coral Gables Museum.
