WELCOME TO COLUMBIA! So what’s not to like about this wonderful town? +

The greatness that is Columbia is no secret — the community is consistently included on regional and national “best of” lists, most recently ranking No. 3 on Livability.com’s Top 10 College Towns ahead of destinations such as Berkley, Calif., Cambridge, Mass. (home of Harvard University and MIT) and Gainesville, Fla. (home of the University of Florida).

Columbia is home to three respected institutions of higher learning: MU, Columbia College and Stephens College.

+

Downtown is home to at least 64 places to eat and drink during a night out on the town.

+

The Mizzou Tigers, reigning SEC East football champions.

+

Events like the True/False Film Festival in late winter, Roots N Blues N Barbecue in September and the Citizen Jane Film Festival in October draw thousands of visitors every year.

+

A thriving live-theater scene, with venues including the Missouri Theatre Center for the Arts on Ninth Street, Jesse Auditorium and Rhynsburger Theatre on the MU campus, Macklanburg Playhouse and Warehouse Theatre on the Stephens College campus, Columbia Entertainment Company Theatre at 1800 Nelwood and the Maplewood Theater in Nifong Park.

+

More than 50 miles of walking, jogging and bicycling trails.

You can camp, scuba dive, fish, swim and much more at Finger Lakes. Visit MoStateParks.com/park/fingerlakes-state-park for more information.

Rock Bridge Memorial State Park Located a few miles south of downtown Columbia off Providence Road, Rock Bridge Memorial State Park provides lots of chances for an outdoor getaway. Hundreds of acres of hilly, forested terrain include a multitude of hiking trails. Devil’s Icebox, with its rock bridge, sinkholes, spring, cave and underground stream is a popular destination.

Most of the rest of the garages utilize pay machines that use a pay in advance system — a patron notes their parking space number and pays the machine for that space for the anticipated time they will be parked. The exception is the Eighth and Cherry Street garage, which has parking meters. Meter rates are 50 cents per hour in the hourly spaces. + Tenth and Cherry Street Garage, 1000 Cherry St.: 104 hourly spaces + Sixth and Cherry Street Garage, 555 Locust St.: 78 hourly spaces + Eighth and Cherry Street Garage, 14 S.
