Discover le Minnesota
Travelers in search of serenity, welcome to Minnesota, land of majestic forests and pure, deep lakes. Nicknamed the "State of Ten Thousand Lakes" (there are actually more than eleven thousand eight hundred), it is also the birthplace of three great rivers: the Mississippi, the Red River and the St. Lawrence. Seasons set the pace for local life: in winter, the frozen lakes are home to fishermen and skaters, while summer transforms them into swimming and water sports areas. Autumn is blazing, offering a magnificent Indian summer. An agricultural state, Minnesota produces corn, beans, meat and dairy products. Its richness also lies in its cultural diversity. The Hmong community, settled since the end of the Vietnam War, is particularly present in Saint Paul and Minneapolis, where it actively contributes to social and cultural life through its traditions, crafts and cuisine.
