Known for its rich pioneer history with the Lewis and Clarke National Historic Trail, Omaha now plays host to an impressive array of world-class museums and cultural centers.

Attractions in Omaha

Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium - Check out the world's largest indoor desert and one of North America's largest indoor rainforests--both easy for families to visit at any time of year. Marvel at the big cats, then cap off your visit at the world's largest indoor swamp.

Durham Museum - Take a trip back in time and stroll past 1940's storefronts up to the old train station where statues tell the story of days gone by. Take your time inside the restored train, and stop for an old-fashioned malt shake.

Mormon Trail Center - Immerse yourself in the mid-1800's great pioneer migration with life-size displays of a log cabin, covered wagon, oxen and handcart. Check local listings for up-to-date events like a quilt show or spectacular gingerbread display.
