(This article details a stage of a coast-to-coast trip through the United States)
In our road trip through the United States and Canada We have had a transition day in which we have traveled the 450 kilometers that separate Minneapolis de Madison, already in the state of wisconsin.
En Madison We stayed in a good, comfortable hotel and decided to eat some “ribs” really delicious in a Friday's near.
We have decided to rest at the hotel and prepare for the next day, in which we visit Madison and we will head to Chicago, via Milwaukee.
All the information in detail
What is the city of Madison, Wisconsin like?
Madison is political capital of the state of Wisconsin and has a population of about 250,000 inhabitants, making it the second most populated city in the country, after Milwaukee.
Madison It is considered one of the North American cities with the highest quality of life, combining unemployment rates among the lowest in the country, a high educational level of its inhabitants and the presence of numerous technology companies that provide a high standard of living.
Located northeast of United States, the city of Madison is surrounded by lakes and the two main ones are part of the city.
In fact, 20 percent of the city's municipal area is occupied by the various lakes.
What to see in Madison in one day
In the fast Madison visit which we did the next day, we walked around the Lake Monoma, small in size, with all the homes around it in a peaceful environment.
Since the day was cloudy and the water of the lake was like a mirror, we enjoyed ourselves for a long time taking photographs.
The light in the photographs conveys a lot of calm.
Then we have seen from the outside the Wisconsin State Capitol, and we have walked around for a long time weekly fruit and vegetable market that was celebrated in the surroundings.
El Madison Capitol It is made in the image and likeness of Washington DC, due to the layout of its dome, and houses the Wisconsin state legislature.
The city also has a certain resemblance to Washington DC in not having a downtown classic American, but it has buildings of lower heights.
In short, Madison is a very pleasant city to visit during a driving route through the United States.
Finally, we have completed our tour of Madison going for a walk around the other lake, the largest one, the Lake Mendota.
To complete this new day, we will visit Milwaukee before arriving at the hotel in Chicago.
