# Mississippi National River and Recreation Area Visitor Center

> Three stories of interactive educational exhibits offer a mix of natural history and science activities suitable for kids and adults. The space provides a bird's eye view of the Twin Cities and combines urban and natural elements along the river. It feels informative but modest, best for those interested in local ecology and national parks.
