Must-see attractions
Mary Tyler Moore Statue
Minneapolis
　　The late, great Mary Tyler Moore (of '70s TV fame) put Minneapolis on the pop-culture map. The spot, at the corner of 7th St S and Nicollet Mall, where she threw her hat in the air during the show's opening sequence is now marked by a cheesy statue depicting our...
Endless Bridge
Minneapolis
　　Head inside the cobalt-blue Guthrie Theater and make your way up the escalator to the Endless Bridge, a far-out cantilevered walkway overlooking the Mississippi River. You don't need a theater ticket, as it's intended as a public space. The theater's 9th-floor Amber Box provides another knockout view. ...
Paisley Park
Minneapolis
　　After Prince died in 2016, his family opened his 65,000-sq-ft home to the public for tours. Fans have been streaming to the mod, boxy white mansion ever since. It's a must-see if you're a devotee of the Purple One. The general walk-through takes 70 minutes and covers Prince’s recording studios,...
Walker Art Center
Minneapolis
　　The first-class art center has a strong permanent collection of 20th-century art and photography, including big-name US painters and great US pop art. On Monday evenings from late July to late August, the museum hosts free movies and music across the pedestrian bridge in Loring Park that are quite the...
Weisman Art Museum
Minneapolis
　　The Weisman, which occupies a swooping silver structure by architect Frank Gehry, is a university (and city) highlight. The airy main galleries hold cool collections of 20th-century American art, ceramics, Korean furniture and works on paper. ...
Minneapolis Sculpture Garden
Minneapolis
　　This 19-acre green space, studded with contemporary works such as the oft-photographed Spoonbridge & Cherry by Claes Oldenburg, sits beside the Walker Art Center. The Cowles Conservatory, abloom with exotic hothouse flowers, is also on the grounds. In summer (May to September) a trippy mini-golf course (adult/child $10/8) amid the...
Mall of America
Minneapolis
　　Welcome to the USA's largest shopping center. Yes, it's just a mall, filled with the usual stores, movie theaters and eateries. But there's also a wedding chapel inside. And an 18-hole mini-golf course. And a zipline. And an amusement park, aka Nickelodeon Universe, with 28 rides, including a couple of...
Gold Medal Park
Minneapolis
　　Locals stroll in this spot that spreads next to the Guthrie Theater. The mound and spiral walkway at the center were inspired by ancient Native American mounds found throughout Minnesota. ...

Minneapolis Institute of Art
Minneapolis
