About Michigan
Also known as the Great Lake State, Michigan's shores touch four
of the five Great Lakes. With more than 11,000 inland lakes, it's said that in Michigan
you're never more than 6 miles from an inland lake or 85 miles from a Great Lake.
The state capital of Michigan is Lansing.

Detroit lies on the Detroit River which connects Lakes Eerie and
St. Clair.
Across the river is the Canadian town of Windsor, reached through the
tunnel west of the Renaissance Center, or by the Ambassador Bridge.
Detroit is not as bad as some reports make out, but it has seen better
days.
The Renaissance Center, on the river, was built to help revitalise the
centre of Detroit. The multipurpose complex has space for shops, offices, theatres, and
hotels.

Travel Michigan:
Michigan has a Great Lakes shoreline of about 5,310 km, and boasts more beaches than
Hawaii. Shame about the climate.
Soo Locks Boat Tours:
Ships travelling from Lake Superior to Lake Huron drop 21 feet in the canal locks at Sault
Ste. Marie, northern Michigan. Tour boats also allow visitors the chance to experience the
drop.
The capital of Michigan often gets missed by most visitors to the
state, as it's not on the coastal route.
In the 1840s a group of New York families came here to claim the land
they had purchased, only to find it didn't exist.
The area was occupied by the Chippewa people but the disillusioned
families remained, and named the new settlement after their former home in New York.
