Historic Hialeah Racetrack

This famous horse racing track was built in 1925 in an architectural style known as Mediterranean and salted with pink flamingos from Cuba and South America. The dscendents of these first birds live at Hialeah today and comrpise a national treasure that tourists and residents love.

In the 21st century, archectural groups have raised money to prevent Hialeah Park from being turned into a housing development filled with condominiums and retail spaces. The park is actually an Official US Sanctuary for the American Flamingo, according to the National Audubon Society.

In fact, the lake in the park includes many islands that are home to several flocks of up to 300 pink flamingos each. These gorgeous birds are descendants of the flamingos imported from Cuba and parts south back in 1925 and previously.

Hialeah itself is a Seminole Native American word that means "High Prairie." Hubs about the Seminole and nearby nations are located here:
