The biggest tip I would give drivers is to have an idea as to your route before you leave. The biggest issue I have heard from friends and people from out of town, is that commuting in Minneapolis can be a nightmare due to all of the one ways.

One of the things I like most about driving in Minneapolis is seeing the skyline at night. Driving downtown at night, you can see a number of the city's downtown skyscrapers aglow, including the Target headquarters and their LED lights above their building. What's even nicer, is that depending upon which roads and interstates you take, you can get a completely different image of Minneapolis. On a number of occasions, my friends and I will drive around the outskirts of the city just to take in the unique views and landmarks that make Minneapolis so special.

In addition, unlike many roads downtown, it's a two way street which is a huge time saver when navigating downtown during peak traffic time.

With stunning views and panoramic landscapes, I will never forgot crossing the bridge and being engulfed by large buildings and classic Minnesota architecture. My personal favorite being the IDS tower and the Guthrie theater. It was a moment I'll never forget and a memory that will stay with me forever.
