== Things To See in Bloomington ==
<!-- Begin external image. -->
Start [[Downtown]] and visit the [[Wonderlab]] for a great experience for the kids, or drop by the [[Waldron Arts Center]] to check out an exhibit or show. Maybe there's a movie showing at the [[Buskirk-Chumley Theater]], but if not, drop by [[Third Street Park]] in case there's a free [[Monroe County Civic Theater]] performance.

<!-- End external image. -->


Afterwards, head toward the [[Fine Arts Square]] on the [[Indiana University]] campus to take in a Broadway show at the [[Indiana University Auditorium]], or go a little further for an opera at the [[Musical Arts Center]], and don't forget to stop by [[Bear's Place]] for a nightcap and to pick up a schedule for the [[Ryder Film Series]].

== Things To Do in Bloomington ==
== Portals ==
Catch a [[Little 500]] bicycle race in April.  Visit the [[4th Street Art Festival]] in September, or the [[Lotus World Music and Arts Festival]] in the summer.  See an [[IU Men's Basketball]] game at the famed [[Assembly Hall]], or come [[Downtown]] for the [[Arts Fair on the Square]] and [[The Taste of Bloomington]]. If the summer heat is unbearable, take a drive down [[SR 446]] or [[Fairfax Road]] to the shores of [[Lake Monroe]], and two not-to-miss state recreational sites, [[Paynetown]] or [[Fairfax]].
<div style="width:1000px;">

== Places To Go Near Bloomington ==
<div style="float: left; width: 320px;">
The Holiday World Amusement Park is a great value that is a two hour drive south of Bloomington.  In the fall, the amazing leaves in the Brown County State Park are not to be missed, just twenty minutes to the east.  Missing the big city life?  Indianapolis is just an hour away, Cincinnati two hours, Chicago and St. Louis four. [[Ellettsville]] is only 8 miles west on [[SR 46|State Road 46]].

== Where To Eat in Bloomington ==
<div style="float: left; width: 320px;">
Visit Restaurant Row on [[4th Street]] for a variety of international dining, and check out the [[Snow Lion]] for an unusual Tibetan experience.  [[Nick's English Hut]] is a Bloomington tradition, but [[Scotty's]], [[Yogi's]], and the [[Irish Lion]] also cater to the over-21 student crowd.  The west side has a variety of steak houses, but vegetarians might prefer the [[Runcible Spoon]] or [[Roots]].  For locally crafted beverages, don't miss [[Lennie's]], [[Upland Brewery]], or [[Oliver Winery]].
