Madison is located on an isthmus between two sparkling lakes Mendota and Monona making the state capital one of the most picturesque in the country. Madison has a rich and vibrant art scene that is sure to impress even the most cosmopolitan newcomers.

Structures designed by Wright include Monona Terrace, Unitarian Meeting House, and Usonian House are must see spots for architectural buffs and Wright enthusiasts. Meanwhile, Madison appeals to the food connoisseur in all of us, proudly standing out as a top dining destination with its farm to table philosophy. Your taste buds are sure to be satisfied with everything from locally produced cheese as well as a host of growing microbreweries.
