Beautiful waterfall in the city limits of Minneapolis. Continue down the trail to walk along the banks of the Mississippi River.

Minneapolis Institute Of Arts is a huge, world class museum. Highly recommended. Regular exhibits plus features rotating exhibits: currently the largest collection of Rembrandts in the US. www.bradleyhanson.com

Very cool to see a #waterfall frozen. Temperature was -6, but felt like -20 with windchill. Good idea to bundle up! #winter #minnesota #Minneapolis #park

Frozen Minnehaha Falls in Minneapolis are even more beautiful in the winter! www.bradleyhanson.com
