Dig into Detroit's history

Visit the showroom of Renaissance Center, the headquarters of General Motors, automaker and brand owner of Buick, Chevrolet, Cadillac, and GMC. Let the tour guides take you through a collection of vintage and modern vehicles developed by GM.

Check out the Henry Ford Museum to see rare presidential automobiles alongside valuable items that tell tales of American history. View other famous exhibits, like the chair President Abraham Lincoln sat in when he was assassinated, American writer Edgar Allan Poe's desk, and the bus where Rosa Parks earned her name in the history books.

Learn about the history of the black community in Detroit at the Museum of African American History. The museum exhibits a wide range of art, artifacts, and items from different points in history. You can even see the underground railroad where enslaved people escaped to Canada from Michigan.

Take in the art and architecture

Explore the largest building of its kind, the Detroit Masonic Temple, known for its unique architecture. Be sure to visit all three of the gothic building's main areas: the shrine club, the ritualistic tower, and the auditorium. From there, head over to Detroit Institute of Arts, home to over 65,000 works of art, including the Detroit Industry North Wall mural by Diego Rivera and Judith and Her Maidservant by Artemisia Gentileschi.

Stop at Belle Isle

Venture to Belle Isle for a quick getaway day trip. The 982-acre island houses museums, an aquarium, a conservatory, lakes, ponds, a lighthouse, and a hiking trail. You can spend your day kayaking, sailing, or visiting the aquarium and nature center. You can also enjoy a meal outside in one of the picnic shelters.
