Minneapolis-St. Paul is akin to Dallas-Ft. Worth. They're two different cities that are group together because of their unusual close proximity. The twin cities are more like fraternal twins because they’re different. Minneapolis has the look and feel of a town looking in the future, while being health conscious and clean. Saint Paul has an older style and look to it, except for the Xcel Center, but does carry the cleanliness of it’s sister city.
There are many things to do in this metropolis. The main attraction is the Mall of America. There are literally hundreds of stores, shops, restaurants, entertainment, and even rides. Yes, an amusement park is in the inside of the mall. What’s even more impressive is its series of roller coasters and thrill rides. This mall even has an aquarium, movie theatre, Lego land, putt-putt golf, and a few simulators for entertainment.
Mall of America is not the only thing to do in the twin cities. Downtown around the Target Center, you will find many entertainment and fun places to go. Gameworks, a few jazz clubs, and even The Shout House are found in the area. Shout House is a place that plays live dueling pianos, which is very fun, entertaining, and gets the crowd to join in the fun.
If you love art and nature, then check out the Metropolitan Zoo as well as its younger brother, Como Zoo. Sculpture Garden is unique, and there are a few museums and historic sites to enjoy. Nature is exquisite due to the amount of lakes, and Minnehaha Park, has an easy to get to waterfalls.
Both cities are unique and I would suggest spending at least two to three days to get the full effect. Make sure to check out the State House found in Saint Paul as well as the Landmark Center. Both are very historic and are full of interesting facts as well as information on how they’re being used today.
Come to the twin cities of Minnesota and you’ll be surprised at how much fun you will have.
