minnesota mapAcquired in part from the British after the American Revolution, and from France in the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, the boundaries of Minnesota in its present form were complete when Britain finally ceded the northern tip bordering Canada in 1818.

Today, "the land of a thousand lakes" offers inhabitants and visitors numberless opportunities for boating, fishing, swimming and other water sports - while big metropolitan centers provide top cultural attractions such as the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis.

Other major attractions include the Minnesota Zoological Gardens in Apple Valley about 20 miles south of the Twin Cities; Voyageurs National Park in International Falls; and the scenic 24-mile North Shore Drive stretching along Lake Superior's shore from downtown Duluth to Two Harbors, Minnesota.

Another Minnesota must-see near Minneapolis is Mall of America, the nation's largest shopping center comprising acres of shops and indoor theme park rides.
