Things to Do in Detroit

Detroit is a major metropolis in Michigan that has a long history of influence on the country and around the world. From the start of the automotive assembly line, to the birth of Motown, to modern techno and rock, Detroit continues to shape American and international culture. Alongside its world class museums and theaters, Detroit is thriving with other new developments and attractions. Detroit is an exciting destination for student travel and anyone interested in technological advances partnered with historic charm.

Detroit has no shortage of entertainment for travelers. From cheap budget pleasers to more fancy places to splurge, this city has something for everyone. Detroit has several casinos along the waterfront for those looking to gamble and for entertainment. Close by is the Renaissance Center where tourists can view the Great Lakes from the revolving restaurant or the free viewing deck. The Cultural Center offers a fabulous grouping of museums and galleries. In nearby Royal Oak you will find the Detroit Zoo which is well worth the visit. Every Saturday in Detroit, right outside of downtown, people can enjoy a large and abundant farmer’s market.
