Known as Muncietown until 1845, Muncie is a historic town located approximately 50 miles away from Indianapolis. It has primarily served as an agricultural and industrial hub throughout the years, but it's still a delightful small-town getaway with a handful of museums and cultural attractions.

Check out the model planes at the National Model Aviation Museum, explore the themed gardens and historic house at the Minnetrista cultural center, or go for a walk or a bike road along the paved Cardinal Greenway, which stretches for 62 miles all the way to the city of Marion.
