As any resident of Detroit will tell you, the city has been the center of the US car industry for almost a century. Although much of the production that once dominated the city and its surrounding areas has gone, cars still cast a shadow over the city, and there are many attractions in Detroit for car lovers to enjoy.

Amongst the many attractions in Motor city, the museum of Ford cars, which features all of the cars that Ford have eve produced including race winning sports cars alongside family cars and vintage vehicles alongside the newest models and concept cars that unfortunately never made it as far as the street. Petrol heads will love the chance to see some of the most famous vehicles from TV and film, and have their photo taken while they experience the sights.

Another popular attraction for visitors to Detroit to enjoy is the famous Motown museum. This cultural archive of all the performers and songs that created the Detroit sound is available in the former home of Motown records founder Berry Gordy Junior. The Motown museum is an unforgettable delight for any music fan thanks to the peerless collection of antique music that truly captured the era when it was popular.

Other attractions that visitors to Detroit can enjoy include the fantastic shopping in the city center. Visitors and locals alike can enjoy a huge range of different shops including all of the big names in American Retail. You can choose from larger department stores like Saks where you can find pretty much any kind of item that you might like, or alternatively choose to explore the many smaller boutique style shops that are also to be found

With museums that tell the story of Michigan to explore, and a high quality cultural scene to enjoy as well, there is plenty to see and do no matter what your particular interests are. Regular concerts, plays, and a thriving operatic society cater to the culture vultures, while rock clubs and large arena style venues offer a more laid back environment in which to enjoy live music from local acts as well as well known bands from around the world.
