During your Minneapolis vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Minnesota History Center
An impressive array of artifacts is housed in this three-story museum, including photographs, music, and videos, much of it designed for hands-on learning and all of it celebrating Minnesota history. Kids especially enjoy sitting in the re-created basement of a Minnesota farmhouse while a simulated tornado passes overhead. Avoid weekday mornings if you don't like to tour with school groups. Allow 1 1/2 hours.

Minnesota Zoo
You'll see most of the exotic animals you expect at the 485-acre Minnesota Zoo, including tigers, camels, dolphins, and monkeys. But this zoo includes an especially nice array of North American animals, including wolves, bison, pumas, and wolverines. During the summer the zoo's working Wells Fargo Family Farm engages visitors with hands-on exhibits and teaches how food travels from the farm to the grocery store shelves. There's also an IMAX theater, and a monorail offering great aerial views. Allow 2 hours.

Science Museum of Minnesota
Hands-on exhibits introduce visitors to natural history, science, and technology in this massive museum. Highlights include the Bloodstream Superhighway, navigating a virtual towboat down the Mississippi River, and the dinosaur lab in the Hall of Paleontology. There's also an Omnitheater. Allow 2 to 3 hours.

Make your reservations for discount hotel rooms in the Minneapolis area, including:

Nicollet Island Inn
Just across from the Mississippi River, this lovely inn was once an 1893 window shade and blind company; it was converted into an inn in the 1970s. The individually decorated rooms are furnished with offbeat originality; all rooms offer VCRs and freshly baked cookies, and some have Jacuzzis. The Nicollet Island Inn Restaurant is highly recommended (as are reservations), featuring contemporary American cuisine and a selection of over 350 wines; it also serves an excellent Sunday brunch ($26 adult, $13 children ages 6-12, free for children 5 and under). Ask about weekend B&B packages.

Saint Paul Hotel
This beautiful, exquisitely decorated hotel, housed in a 1910 building, makes for a great romantic getaway. The historic property has welcomed many a famous guest over the years, including Calvin Coolidge and Ma Barker. A number of rooms offer great views; all are decorated in elegant European style and feature Aveda toiletries. The hotel is famous for its afternoon tea and the landmark St. Paul Grill.

Doubletree Park Place
Located 3 1/2 miles west of downtown, this hotel boasts a five-story pool atrium and reasonable rates outside the hubbub of the busy downtown area. The spacious guest rooms were designed with business travelers in mind, but are perfectly comfortable for leisure travelers as well.
