State Street vs Monroe Street

A walk down quieter Monroe Street, starting at the Badgers' Camp Randall Stadium, offers roughly three dozen places to shop and dine. Standouts include Orange Tree Imports (pictured), featuring gourmet kitchenware and bakeware, and Art Gecko, a riotously colorful shop selling handmade items from Bali.
