During your Detroit vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Detroit Historical Museum
Begin your exploration of Detroit with this repository of the city's history. You can walk a re-created cobblestone and brick street lined with 19th-century shops, and check out the two-story assembly line in the Motor City exhibit. Interactive displays entertain children of all ages. Allow 1 to 2 hours.
Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History
In the mid-1800s, Detroit was a key stop on the Underground Railroad, through which thousands of slaves escaped to Canada. This and other aspects of African-American heritage, from African roots through slavery and civil rights struggles, are celebrated at the world's largest museum of African and African-American history and culture. Allow 1 hour.
Henry Ford Museum & Greenfield Village
The Henry Ford Museum, a 12-acre repository of Americana, holds something of interest for everyone. "Heroes of the Sky" is the museum's newest permanent exhibit, featuring dozens of historic airplanes: Byrd's Arctic Fokker, a Sikorsky helicopter, and early commercial and barnstorming planes. But the museum's highlight is, not surprisingly, "The Automobile in American Life," exploring our nation's infatuation with cars. Look for Ford's 1901 Model-T, the Oscar Meyer Wienermobile, Rosa Parks's bus, and a parade of presidential vehicles, including the limousine in which Kennedy was shot. Allow 3 hours.Greenfield Village encapsulates Ford's infatuation with history and the world's innovators. 100 genuine 17th-, 18th-, and 19th-century homes were transported from throughout the U.S. and Europe to bring history to Detroit. The Wright Brothers' bicycle shop, Edison's laboratory, and a collection of slave quarters are highlights. Note: The village is closed January through March. Allow 2 hours.New to the mix in 2004, the Ford Rouge Factory Tour depicts the production of Ford's most popular truck, the F-150, through the magic of virtual reality and an assembly plant walking tour. Tours begin in front of the Henry Ford Museum; reservations are strongly recommended. Allow 2 hours.
Best Western Sterling Inn
The Sterling Inn offers great value for families -- clean, comfortable rooms; a kid-friendly staff; and the hotel's chief draw: an indoor water park including a 5,000-square-foot pool, a three-story water slide, a lazy river, two large whirlpools, lots of squirting contraptions, and several lifeguards. More adult activities include an indoor running track and a very nice fitness center. But kids reign at the Sterling Inn, so if you want to avoid children, be forewarned.
The Inn on Ferry Street
The Inn on Ferry Street is actually a collection of four large 19th-century homes and their carriage houses. Once slated for demolition, the buildings were rescued and converted into a charming B&B complex, each with its own parlor with fireplace. The individually decorated rooms have the usual array of modern amenities and up-to-date private bathrooms. The inn is located in the heart of the Cultural Center, within easy walking distance of museums. Complimentary shuttle service is provided within a 5-mile radius.
The Dearborn Inn
The Dearborn Inn opened its doors in 1931 as the world's first airport hotel, located right across the street from Ford Airport. The airport has long since closed, but this historic inn remains popular, known for its Georgian elegance, first-class service, and business amenities. The 23 acres of meticulously landscaped grounds and gardens make this hotel feel worlds away from the big city. The Henry Ford Museum complex is within walking distance.
