Basically Tampa's mini version of mardi gras (really mini, as in four blocks mini) this is pretty much the go-to bar/shopping district in the Tampa Bay area. The bars here are a bit on the obnoxious side (think lots of bead tossing), but some of the cafes are cozy and I had a spectacular Cuban sandwich here as well. One of the neatest parts of Tampa in general is the streetcar that runs from Ybor City, past the Channelside Bay Plaza to downtown.
