Best spot to get mouth-watering pastries, and home-made bread. Not much space to sit inside. I suggest you pick up some chocolate croissants for savoring at home!

Located at the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers, Ft. Snelling is a must see spot. The visitor center has tons of information, but I really like walking the grounds of the fort, going into the buildings and interacting with historic interpreters.
