The Pop Traveler recently published a list of ten reasons to visit Minneapolis-Saint Paul! Here they are:
1. First Avenue
First Avenue is one of the best concert venues in the country. Take a look at the 'wall of fame' and see all the names of bands that have played at First Ave. First Ave is a symbol of the great local music scene.
2. Minneapolis Institute of Arts
There are nearly 60 museums in the area, with only Chicago and D.C. boasting more. However, the MIA is probably the best!
3. The lakes
Though our license plates lie... we actually have around 12,000 lakes, the truth still holds - our lakes are gorgeous!
4. Target
Minnesota is the home of the first-ever Target.
5. Skyways
Both Minneapolis and Saint Paul have miles of skyways that hide us from the (sometimes) crappy Minnesota weather.
6. Hennepin Theatre Trust
There are some 30 theater companies in town, but along Hennepin Avenue in Minneapolis sit four of the most iconic and historic structures.
7. Local brews
We love our beer! It is no surprise that more and more local breweries keep popping up around the cities.
8. Public art
9. Authors and screenwriters
10. Jucy Lucy
We love our burgers!
What is your favorite thing about Minneapolis-Saint Paul? Is it the theatre scene? That's our favorite!
