Excellent choice! Minneapolis-Saint Paul Twin Cities form a major metropolitan area with a population of 3.2M built around the Mississippi, Minnesota and St. Croix rivers. Minneapolis is somewhat younger with more skyscrapers with Scandinavian roots. Saint Paul has more quaint neighborhoods with well-preserved late-Victorian architecture influenced by French, Irish, and German heritage. Both cities began with a connection to to Mississippi River. Minneapolis formed thanks to water power derived from Saint Anthony Falls. Whereas Saint Paul was the last convenient boat unloading location prior to the falls. The area is renown for strong child education, and polite / recreational culture offering many fun outdoor and culinary activities for students after Lean Lego Game. Most popular of these include shopping on Grand Avenue, exploring Minnehaha Falls Park, admiring works at the Walker Art Center and Minneapolis Sculpture Garden. Other popular destinations are Como Park Zoo and Conservatory and Mill City Museum commemorating the Washburn Flour Mill.
