The bluffs along the Missouri River in northeastern Nebraska offer natural beauty with miles of densely wooded areas and pristine waterfalls, while central Nebraska’s tallgrass prairies and scattered woodlands preserve the state’s homesteading heritage. Cities like Omaha, home to the Henry Doorly Zoo (deemed one of the best in the nation), are historical and cultural centers.
