You'll Love Budget-Friendly Lincoln

• Go where the buffalo used to roam. Outside activities of all kinds await when you vacation in Lincoln. Pioneers Park Nature Center is one of the best places to see the local wildlife, hike miles of picturesque trails, and relax against the backdrop of running rivers and lush wetlands. Or, take a walk through the supposedly haunted Antelope Park and maybe you'll catch a glimpse of the spirits said to walk the grounds... But if botany is more your thing, check out the beautiful Sunken Gardens in the heart of the city—it's free to visit!
• Explore Lincoln's museums—admission free! Learn about the Native American and pioneer culture of the Great Plains at the recently renovated Nebraska History Museum. It's free to visit year-round. The National Museum of Roller Skating contains the world’s largest collection of historical roller skates, dating to 1819. It's a small, funky attraction with free admission that's big on fun. And at the The Larsen Tractor Test and Power Museum, you and the kids can tour the exhibits for free and learn the history of these big, industrious machines.
