Grand Rapids Travel Guide

Grand Rapids, Michigan’s second largest city, offers small-city comfort with big-city sophistication. You can stroll the downtown riverwalk, explore historic Heritage Hill, enjoy evening performances, and cheer at professional sporting events. The city’s bustling Downtown District offers night clubs, theaters and dining options galore. Four outstanding museums are all within walking distance, and just minutes from downtown, the Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park combines nature’s beauty with extraordinary modern sculpture.

Simply head a short distance to the west of Grand Rapids to experience charming seaside villages, a thousand miles from the sea. Explore quaint coastal towns and spectacular beaches in Grand Haven, Holland and Muskegon. Visit a vast array of art and sculpture galleries, dune-filled parks and Michigan’s Adventure amusement park.
