In winter, explore the downtown area through more than seven miles of glass-enclosed skyways. In addition to keeping you warm, they create a lively thoroughfare filled with speciality shops, restaurants and services. Whether you want to escape the winter cold or the summer warmth, the Mall of America offers shopping, dining and entertainment for every member of the family. Art lovers have plenty to see at the Minneapolis Art Institute, Walker Art Center and the Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum, which all house world-renowned collections. The theatre scene is thriving: with more than 30 theatres, Minneapolis has more seats per capita than any US city except New York. See a Broadway show and enjoy dinner and live jazz at a fabulous restaurant. With children, check out the Science Museum of Minnesota, where visitors can produce their own video, or come face to face with a shark at the UnderWater Adventures Aquarium. In summer, the action moves outside. Known as "The City of Lakes", Minneapolis has 22 lakes within the city and many more in the surrounding area. In town, locals and tourists roller blade or stroll around Lake Calhoun, stopping for ice cream along the way. Just outside town, Fort Snelling State Park offers outdoor activities from hiking to cycling and golf to boating. No matter when you visit, Minneapolis offers lots for everyone to enjoy. « less
