Those who want to admire real nature rather than man-made sites should take a promenade around the Grand Rounds National Scenic Byway park area consisting of over 80 km of green landscapes. It can be considered the major attraction of the city. The main part of the huge park area was built in the 1930s as part of a natural resource preservation project. The park area includes Minnehaha Park, the Chain of Lakes, Theodore Wirth Park, Minnehaha Falls as well as Mississippi Mile. Minneapolis is also famous for its footbridges (the Minneapolis Skyway System) which connect buildings in 69 central city districts. While it’s simply a necessity for a city with a harshly continental climate, tourists visiting the city consider the bridges to be a real landmark.

Lakewood Cemetery is another remarkable place in Minneapolis. It is famous for its chapel modeled after Istanbul’s Hagia Sophia. Besides, tombstones and vaults are certainly the cemetery’s landmarks. Almost each of them can be called a masterpiece. It’s also worth saying that among others, famous politicians are buried here. The Minneapolis City Hall built in 1906 is a notable example of Romanesque Revival. It started to serve its main purpose in 1912 having replaced the old municipal building. Apart from the city hall, the building also houses police and fire departments, a jail, and a county courthouse.
