　　When you think 'horror movie asylum,' this century-old state psychiatric hospital is exactly what you envision. Included guided tours roam the former pathology lab, from the cold-slabbed autopsy room to the eerie specimen room filled with brains in jars. Tours start on the hour. It's a few miles west of White River State Park.

Must-see attractions

Lucas Oil Stadium

　　Where the NFL's Colts play football under a huge retractable roof. 　　Tours of the stadium are available at 11am, 1pm and 3pm Monday through Friday ($10 to $15). ...

Children's Museum of Indianapolis

　　It's the world's largest kids' museum, sprawled over five floors holding incredible exhibitions on dinosaurs, space stations and so much more. The museum is centered around a stunning 43ft sculpture by Dale Chihuly that teaches tykes to blow glass (virtually!); and the fantastic new 7.5-acre Sports Legends Experience is the...

White River State Park

　　The expansive park, located at downtown's edge, contains several worthwhile sights. The adobe Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians & Western Art features an impressive collection of Native American works. Other park highlights include an atmospheric minor-league baseball stadium, a zoo, a 3-mile loop canal walk, gardens, Indiana State Museum and...

Eiteljorg Museum

　　This adobe museum features Native American basketry, pots and masks, as well as a realistic/romantic Western painting collection with works by Frederic Remington, Georgia O'Keeffe and an absolutely eye-popping Grand Canyon series (Wilson Hurley's October Suite). 　　The museum validates the $8 parking free, so feel free to head into the...

Indiana War Memorial

　　Only Washington, DC has more city monuments and memorials than Indianapolis (in fact, Scottish surveyor Alexander Ralston helped design both cities). This 210ft-tall mausoleum-evoking limestone tribute honoring Hoosier veterans of World War I is one of its best and most deceptive. 　　Inside, the plush theater and war museum are worth...

　　Quaff German and local brews at the outdoor beer garden's picnic tables in summer, or inside the deer-head-lined beer hall once winter strikes. Rathskeller is located in the historic Athenaeum building near Mass Ave and has been one of Indy's best bars for a very long time. ...

　　A smattering of food stalls fill the city's old marketplace, which dates from 1886. The 2nd-floor bar (open 2pm to 9pm Monday to Thursday and noon to 9pm Friday and Saturday) pours 19 local brews; most other vendors close by 3pm. 　　Below ground, catacombs dating to 1886 lurk unbeknownst to...

　　This questionably ambitious hidden green space lying off the Cultural Trail between Fletcher Place and Fountain Square might seem a tad strange, but you wouldn't be visiting Indiana if you weren't looking for Midwestern eccentricities. Landlocked between lanes of I-65/70, it features an accessible limestone trail leading to a viewing...

Kurt Vonnegut Museum & Library

　　Author Kurt Vonnegut was born and raised in Indy, and this humble museum pays homage with displays including his Pall Mall cigarettes, droll drawings, and rejection letters from publishers. The museum also replicates his office, complete with a blue Coronamatic typewriter. You're welcome to sit at the desk and type...

Indianapolis Motor Speedway

　　The Speedway, home of the Indianapolis 500 motor race, is Indy's super-sight. The Speedway Museum features some 75 racing cars (including former winners) and a 500lb Tiffany trophy. Limited availability golf-cart tours of the grounds and track ($50) are available from March to October (OK, you're not exactly burning rubber...
