As the capital of Michigan, Lansing is always a good choice for a day trip. There's something here for everyone; art lovers can admire the downtown murals and Sculpture Walk, history buffs can visit the Michigan History Museum, and anyone who wants to get some fresh air can explore the 16-mile-long Lansing River Trail. The city is also informally known as the "Festival Capital of Michigan", and lucky visitors will have the opportunity to catch one of the 60+ events that take place here throughout the year, with highlights including the Michigan Nordic Fire Festival and the Michigan BluesFest.
