Fun for everyone!

There are a couple of elements that characterize Idaho's capital city of Boise. To begin, the state's capital draws much attention to the area though most folks are surprised at how much the area has to offer that is not widely known or talked about. Adventurers would have to invest a great deal of time and energy exploring the city to truly sort out what it means to call Boise home and why so many folks choose to move to the area and visit when that option is not a possibility. A better way of understanding Boise starts outdoors with droves of opportunities waiting to keep visitors and residents alike enjoying the time spent here. In the event that visitors begin to dig in and get out to explore the city and its residents, do a few activities, and appreciate what the city brings to the table, visitors will advance rapidly in understanding just how incredible the city of Boise truly is. Welcomed by warm smiles, friendly faces, and an atmosphere that is one of its own, the city is vibrant during the day and the downtown area transforms into a wonderful world of art shows, concerts, dining options, sporting events, and so much more, the entire area comes to life at night.

Secondly, Boise is the biggest city in Idaho with regard to its population, and two of the other biggest urban communities within the state are its neighbors. To an outside observer, this fact alone may appear to sound crowded, though it’s difficult to imagine that the entire Treasure Valley and Metro area remains under seven hundred and fifty thousand with Boise settling at seventy-seventh position for the most populous metropolitan statistical area within the entire United States. The fact of the matter is that Boise reportedly boasts a current population of four hundred and sixty-two thousand with a 1.54% increase from the previous year. However, this still isn't sufficient to get a decent image of what Boise is or what the city is great for.

At the focal point of Boise, there is an exceptionally fascinating landmark that adventurers will have the opportunity to visit and get familiar with an unexpected surprise about a subject adventurers presumably have not given a great deal of thought to. The Anne Frank Human Rights Memorial sits along the Boise River and is a window into a subject that isn't handily neglected. There, visitors will have the opportunity to become more familiar with the history and how earnest the community is about committing to growth in the most positive directions possible. Visitors will have the opportunity to peruse the Declaration of Human Rights and review a portion of the writings by Anne Frank. The memorial is immersed with mature tree life, nature, and surrounded by a combination of peaceful sounds of songbirds, and the Boise River waters rustling by, or perhaps even the ringing bells of bicyclists riding down the greenbelt adjacent to this area.

The Boise River and the Boise River Greenbelt are where a great deal of the fascinating area events and community gatherings are linked. Visitors might consider bicycle rentals for exploring the city, which wraps and weaves its way all the way to the neighboring city of Eagle, with a starting point near the Boise Diversion Dam. No matter what means visitors choose or prefer to utilize for area exploration they are sure to have fun discovering what feels like a park at every turn, boutiques, shopping options everywhere, breweries, and food options that are out of this world when it comes to farm fresh quality. Pack a fishing pole, binoculars, a picnic basket, sports equipment, or perhaps a favorite book to enjoy while out and about. Additional destinations found along the Boise River Greenbelt include businesses, sporting event centers, and the white water park that draws spectators from all across the Treasure Valley to witness some of the incredible feats and accomlishments made by kayakers, boarders, and various other styles of white water fun. 

The Idaho State Museum is also located in the downtown Boise area, sharing grounds with the Boise Art Museum and the Boise Zoo. It doesn't get much better than having a host of things to do all in a square mile, but the truth is there’s way more to enjoy! As adventurers may very well have speculated, various galleries are dedicated to the area's history, and the Idaho State Museum is simply centered around its namesake. The museum is a wild mix of old, new, and everything in between with interactive displays, animation, and visually pleasing combinations of surprises! Check it out, this destination makes a great mid-day stop to escape the heat while enjoying some really neat information about the area. The displays are all cutting edge, and adventurers will have the opportunity to communicate with the staff to help improve the overall experience. Knowing the historical backdrop of the area really sheds light on what it might mean to start building a home in the area and why it’s so fascinating that all these realities have for the most part gone largely unnoticed.

For the following two destinations, we will step outside the city's furthest reaches and discuss a few activities that are super close. Idaho isn't anything without its close association with nature, Boise is truly outstanding and offers one of the simplest destinations a few miles into the foothills of Bogus Basin. The primary draw of Bogus Basin is the skiing adventurers during the colder months, though there’s plenty to do during the warmer months as well. Grab a mountain bike or plan for area exploration, or perhaps relax a little and take an area tour on the thrilling mountain coaster. There are activities the entire year close so go on out during winter, summer, fall, or spring to live it up.

Lastly, though not least, the last spot is quite special and one of a kind to Idaho. There are a great deal of creature preservation endeavors happening in the United States and across the world, however, Idaho puts such a priority on maintaining the and betterment of the quality of life for all that it truly makes the state stand out as one of the best places to live and enjoy calling home. The World Center for Birds of Prey is one of the most fascinating and open to the public. That being said, The World Center for Birds of Prey is essential for protecting the population of a few various extraordinary bird populations by preserving critical nesting areas and helping the next generation of cute new creatures into nature. This location likewise takes in harmed birds of prey birds and birds that don't perform well in the wild, giving the struggling creatures a spot to recuperate or live.
