Review of Des Moines, Iowa


so much to do!
Star Rating - 4/2/2012
You shouldn't have a day where you can't find something to do! Des Moines has a wonderful Civic Center, Wells Fargo Arena, HyVee Hall, Hoyt-Sherman Place, the Science Center, Des Moines Art Center, State Historical Bldg., Botanical Center, State Capitol--and these are just the major sites! There is much local talent from sports to ballet and everything in-beween.Much of it is very inexpensive too! Within an hour's drive there are also many choices from local playhouses to ballgames, auctions, farmer's markets, highschool performances, and music in the squares. Enjoy your time!
