Where to go in Indianapolis
Often referred to as Nap Town by the locals, Indianapolis is anything but sleepy. There’s plenty to see and do for the whole family, and the town is even gaining a reputation as one of the more underrated foodie destinations in the country right now. Check out some of the recommended destinations below, and use Uber to help you get around. If you’re traveling with family and need the extra space, request an UberXL.
- Indianapolis Children’s Museum: One enjoyable place to take the whole family is the Indianapolis Children’s Museum, the largest kid’s museum of its kind in the world. With five floors filled with artifacts and interactive exhibits, you’ll find a children’s theater, a planetarium, and an immaculately restored carousel from 1917.

- White River State Park: You don’t have to get out of the city to commune with nature—White River State Park has plenty of trails and waterways to keep you occupied.
