The Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra often stage open air performances in the impressive surrounding of Capitol Square. A tour of the State Capitol building, with its magnificent granite dome, is well worth taking. A day out that all the family can enjoy is at the Henry Vilas Zoo, where the admission is free. Here there are over 800 animals, a superb primate exhibit and an outstanding tropical rain forest aviary. Regarded as the city’s favourite landmark, Memorial Union Terrace offers live music, films and theater performances by the lakefront, plus art galleries and a wide selection of outdoor recreation.

There are over a dozen beaches, great waterfront dining and a host of water sports options, including boat, kayak and canoe rentals. A natural national landmark, the Cave of the Mounds, with its stunning natural rock and mineral formations, is definitely worth a visit.

Madison, WI airport overview

Quaint, clean and well-run are some of the first words that come to mind when traveling through Dane County Regional Airport (MSN), which serves Madison, Dane County and all of south-central Wisconsin, USA.

This zippy little airport has a fair amount to offer for such a small space, and as it should only take you a few minutes to walk from security to whichever one of the 13 gates you’re flying out from, you should have a little time to sample one of the tantalizing eateries at hand.

Don’t, however, mistake the intimacy of Dane County Airport for small-town laxness  – the airport is renowned for having extremely thorough security, so be sure to have all your liquids in a bag and your shoes removed before entering into the line.
