14 Top Attractions in the Twin Cities
The Minneapolis-Saint Paul metro area thrives because it strikes a great balance between city-cool and eco-friendly, and between history and hip.
Guthrie Theatre
The Twin Cities theater scene owes much to the internationally acclaimed Guthrie Theater, founded in 1963. World-famous English director Sir Tyrone Guthrie, searching for a Midwest city in which to establish a professional theater, chose Minneapolis.
Nearly 50 years later, the Guthrie is more successful than ever. Now in a new home on the banks of the Mississippi River, the Guthrie offers classic works and a dash of contemporary plays. Four restaurants offer a variety of dining choices, and a variety of tours -- including backstage, architectural and self-guided-- round out the Guthrie experience (877/447-8243; guthrietheater.org).
