Prep for Your Bloomington Visit

Just a stone's throw from nearby Minneapolis and St. Paul, this cozy suburb draws plenty of tourist foot-traffic thanks to the mega-sized mall and entertainment complex, the Mall of America. As the largest mall in the U.S and one of the world's most visited tourist attractions, this retail mecca is only getting larger, with a 5-million square-foot expansion since its opening in 1992. With a scenic location on the Minnesota River and almost a third of its area reserved as parkland, Bloomington manages to balance its retail behemoth by also enticing you to enjoy time outdoors. Enjoy the best of both worlds during your time in Bloomington!
