The Twin Cities

If you are not from Minnesota, you will quickly come to know Minneapolis MN and Saint Paul MN as the twin cities. Both sit on the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers, creating two big hubs for business in Minnesota in just a small area. While they are many times lumped together as one when someone is referring to the area, each city has unique characteristics based on its history.

If you live near Prior Lake, MN, you will definitely get to see what Minneapolis has to offer. Just a short drive up Route 35 West gets you to the city and its numerous arts and entertainment venues. It has more of a trendy, uptown scene in comparison to its counterpart. Be sure to check out its downtown area as well as Minnehaha Falls and its gorgeous hiking trails.

Saint Paul, Minnesota’s capital, has quieter neighborhoods and is known for its Victorian architecture. It does, however still have quite a few fun activities for a day trip.
