🇺🇸 Study Abroad Life｜One Day in Milwaukee, Wisconsin

A super packed day trip — drove 5 hours from Minneapolis! 🚗💨 ⏰ 5:30 AM: Departed ⏰ 10:30 AM: Arrived in Milwaukee 📍 Milwaukee Public Market A lively morning market with tons of unique food stalls — full of local vibes! 🥟🍦 📍 Milwaukee Art Museum Similar vibe to MIA in Minneapolis, but with a stunning lakeside location by Lake Michigan 🏛️🌊 📍 Harley-Davidson Museum Highly recommend! Not too big, but packed with cool history and insanely stylish motorcycles 🏍️✨ 📍 Basilica of Saint Josaphat Not every church is called a Basilica — this one is gorgeous and intricately designed ⛪😍 (Check open hours before going — they’re limited!) 📍 Giannis Mural Giant mural dedicated to the Bucks superstar 🎨🏀 📍 Miller Brewery The Miller Beer headquarters 🍻 They offer brewery tours, and if you’re 21+, you can sample exclusive beers only available here! (My friend and I are under 21… so we missed out 😭) 🚗 1-hour drive to Madison 📍 Wisconsin State Capitol Impressive and grand building — definitely worth a photo stop! 📸🏛️ 🍽️ Ichiban Sichuan 610 S Park St, Madison, WI 53715 Average $30 per person This place puts any Chinese restaurant in Minnesota to shame 😲✨ We ordered a bit of everything — no disappointments! Highlights: Cumin Lamb (no gamey taste, perfectly spiced), sizzling frog with rice, and tender Fish with Pork Intestine. ⚠️ Service was just okay though — not very friendly. A long but totally worth-it day exploring culture, food, and brews (almost!) 🍻🌆 #Milwaukee #Wisconsin #MinneapolisDayTrip #Minnesota #UMN #StudyAbroad #USCampusLife
