🇺🇸 Detroit: The Most Underrated City in America
This year, I unexpectedly visited Detroit twice—and it shattered every stereotype I had about this city ("dangerous," "unsafe," "chaotic"). Here’s why it stole my heart: 🚗 The Henry Ford Museum (3-4 hrs) • Where American industry began: Vintage cars frozen in time, Ford’s roaring assembly lines, and retired factory workers proudly guiding tours like living historians. • Chills moment: Hearing laughter echo through the 100-year-old factory floors. 🎨 Detroit Institute of Arts (3-4 hrs, still not enough!) • Van Gogh in America exhibit: 70+ global masterpieces, plus Monet’s Rounded Flower Bed (impressionist magic!). • Showstopper: Diego Rivera’s Detroit Industry Murals—sheer, breathtaking power. • Hidden gem: Make-your-own souvenir pin at the art studio! 🎭 Fox Theatre • 1920s grandeur: Ornate Art Deco meets Roman Revival. • Regret: Missing a show here—next time! 🌉 Detroit Riverwalk • Skyline views of Canada across the water + the futuristic Renaissance Center. • Night safety surprise: Cops at every corner, streets lit up like a comeback story. 🍕 Detroit’s Secret Weapon: SQUARE PIZZA • Thick, cheesy, caramelized edges—I’m not a pizza person, but I devoured it at midnight. Verdict? Detroit is art, grit, and resilience—with a side of molten cheese. #Detroit #TravelUSA #UnderratedCities
