Essential Indianapolis Bring on the lazy, crazy, hazy days of summer. In the Hoosier State, we bask in the sun beating down as the wind rustles the prairie grasses and we get that heavenly breeze off the White River. Whether you’re jumping in a nearby lake to cool off, or cozying up on a picnic blanket to watch fireflies blink “hello” at dusk, we highly suggest taking advantage of the great outdoors. And this season is all about embracing what makes us great—from the Indy 500 to the state’s bicentennial. There’s no mistaking it—this is the most wonderful time of the year.
WE COULD SPEND HOURS
(nay, days) exploring all there is to see and do in White River State Park. But nothing makes us happier than checking in on our animal friends at the Indianapolis Zoo. Open since 1988, ours was the first zoo ever to be triple accredited a zoo, an aquarium and

a botanic garden. The zoo’s five designated areas contain over 250 species of animals: Oceans, Deserts Dome, Forests, Plains, Flights of Fancy, along with the White River Gardens. To get the most out of your trip, we suggest visiting the newest zoo babies: an orangutan,

You can do THAT… in Carmel? Carmel, Indiana is a thriving city where people come to play in the Arts & Design District, enjoying live music and a glass of wine at Peace Water Winery. They come to spend a day at The Waterpark at the Monon Community Center, where the brave can grab a surf board and test their skills on the popular water-gushing, wave riding Flow Rider® or scale the wall of the AquaClimb® while those looking for a leisurely day can lounge on the lazy river or enjoy their own private cabana. Prefer to stay dry? Hop on Carmel’s Zagster bike share program and choose your route among 200-plus miles of connected trails and pathways. And if music is your passion, spend some time with Michael Feinstein’s Great American Songbook Museum and stay for a show at The Palladium and Center for the Performing Arts. 142445-A1-9.indd 1

Water, Water Everywhere Hot temps call for cooling off in the water. And while Indy isn’t exactly near the Great Lakes, we’re not totally landlocked. For slipping and sliding, head to the Monon Community Center’s waterpark, where you can race down the adventure slides, scale “The Wall,” or just relax down the lazy river (Open May 28-Sept. 5; 1235 Central Park Dr. E., Carmel, 317.848.7275, carmelclayparks.com). For an au natural setting, Eagle Creek Park has a swimming area featuring Plunge Harbor, an inflatable playground of sorts (Open May 28-Aug. 1; 7800 Eagle Beach Dr., 317.327.7132, eaglecreekpark.org).
For more information: wheretraveler.com
Rolling Down The River There’s no mistaking the White River is the natural gem of Indy. The sparkling, winding canal adds a peaceful feel to our bustling downtown. And we can’t believe how many ways there are to enjoy it.
• For a touch of Europe in the heart of the Midwest, book a traditional gondola ride with Old World Gondoliers (340 W. Michigan St., 317.340.2489, 4gondola.com). Make it a public ride to make new friends, or book the whole boat for a private moment (it is the number one proposal destination in Indiana, after all).

Stardust Terrace Café
AL FRESCO DINING
On the Waterfront Nope, this isn’t Venice — it’s Indianapolis! For memorable meals with a side of scenery, head downtown to dine along the Canal Walk. If you get lucky, you might even see a gondola drift by. Feast on hearty gourmet burgers and fries in cute metal baskets washed down with craft beer at the Euro pub-style Burgerhaus—you can’t go wrong with the burger of the month special (335 W. 9th St., Suite D, 317.434.4287, visitburgerhaus.com). Or, satisfy your cravings for Italian beef sandwiches, summery Caprese salads, flatbread pizzas and frosty Italian ice at Fresco Italian Café on the Canal (310 W. Michigan St., 317.797.9185, frescoindy.com). Hoaglin To Go supplies the tasty stock at the Indiana History Center’s Stardust Terrace Café, prime property for mid-day brunch fare, salads, soups and sandwiches (450 W. Ohio St., 317.232.1882, indianahistory.org). And if it’s a caffeine fix you’re after, duck into Quills Coffee for artfully poured lattes that are almost too pretty to drink (335 W. 9th St., 317.426.1431, quillscoffee.com).

FLOWING FOUNTAINS When there’s a fountain around, we grab a seat and enjoy the mist. And they are some beautiful sights. The Soldiers and Sailors Monument is a neoclassical monument and remains Indy’s most famous landmark (1 Monument Circle). It’s surrounded by a series of pools and cascading fountains that sparkle during the city’s warmer months. We also love the Whitetail deer fountain at The Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art (500 W. Washington St.). Visitors are greeted by this playful cast bronze sculpture of whitetail deer prancing through a pond, created by Kenneth R. Bunn.
