Walk the streets of Minneapolis-St. Paul, the economic and cultural center of the Upper Midwest, and discover their distinct identities as the City of Lakes on flat prairies and the Capitol City on rolling hills and high river bluffs. Laugh in a comedy club in Uptown or marvel at the works of art in the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden; satisfy your inner foodie at one of the 17 blocks' worth of restaurants along Eat Street or browse for the perfect accessory in Dinkytown; stroll the climate-controlled skyway system that links 80 Minneapolis city blocks or contemplate beautifully restored Victorian homes on Nicollet Island; and view beautiful Minnehaha Falls or admire a restored wooden carousel in Como Park. The 34 walks include trivia about architecture, famous locals, and the cities' rich history, plus where to dine, get a great, strong cup of coffee, visit world-class museums, and shop. Books in the award winning Walking series are for visitors and locals alike. This highly portable guide features detailed maps for each trip, original photos, and parking information for every trip.
