WELCOME TO THE TWIN CITIES

The multi-county area that encompasses the “Twin Cities” of Minneapolis a Saint Paul is one of the most dynamic metropolitan regions in the nation. Best known for its cultural and recreational opportunities and pristine natural environment, this area combines the contemporary sophistication with Midwestern friendliness and historic charm.

The Minnesota capital city of Saint Paul, nestled against the east bank of the mighty Mississippi River, is often referred to as the “last of the Eastern cities” for its distinctive architecture and old-world ambiance. In fact, Summit Avenue is recognized by architects around the world for having the finest showcase of Victorian-era mansions in the entire nation. The impressive State Capitol complex, the Cathedral of Saint Paul, and Fitzgerald Theater—home to Garrison Keillor’s Prairie Home Companion Show—are all major attractions in St. Paul.

With its glistening skyline, Minneapolis rests along the opposite side of the river as the more cosmopolitan of the Twin Cities. Minneapolis showcases a revitalized riverfront area, the University of Minnesota, professional sports, a renowned theater district, a lavish parks system, and Camelot neighborhoods. Furthermore, the new light-rail system connects the city with the nation’s most popular and largest shopping destination, the Mall of America in the suburb of Bloomington. Surrounding the Twin Cities and their inner suburbs, rural counties offer the best of all worlds in tranquil small towns that enjoy easy access to world-class urban advantages.
