About Indianapolis:
If you haven’t visited Indianapolis in the last decade prepare to be surprised.
Indianapolis is the 12th largest city in the United States, with a population approaching one million people. Even so it is often called “the largest small town in America.” It has been consistently ranked as one of the Top Ten Cities on lists of "America's Best Places to Live & Work." The downtown area is an exciting destination with its sports stadiums, including the amazing Lucas Oil Stadium now under construction, world class museums, amazing shopping and a multitude of restaurants. When you are downtown you can walk along the canal and wander through scenic parks, gardens and trails.
Indianapolis is the home of a number of world class attractions including: the NCAA Hall of Champions, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway (home of the Indianapolis 500, the Brickyard 400 and the U.S. Grand Prix), the Indianapolis Zoo with its new and unique underwater Dolphin Dome; the Indianapolis Museum of Art and the Eiteljorg Museum (which contains one of the best Native American and Western art collections in the world). See http://www.indy.org/ for more of what is happening in Indianapolis.
