Quirky art, cheese, and a ton of fun are just some of the things you can expect when you visit Milwaukee and its surrounding areas. Officially incorporated in 1845, Milwaukee is Wisconsin’s largest city, located on the shores of great Lake Michigan. Three rivers converge here - Menominee, Milwaukee, and Kinnickinnic - and that played a role in the city’s history. With Milwaukee’s German roots, it’s no surprise that the city is filled to the brim with relaxing attractions. Milwaukee Art Museum, where you can view works of Georgia O'Keeffe, will put you in a meditative state. At Old World Third Street Historic District, you can sit back and enjoy a pint of beer as you people-watch. But if you want to have a relaxing vacation, come stay at the top spa resorts near Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Continue reading to learn more.
