Between the stacks at Prairie Lights bookstore and the hallowed halls of the Iowa Writers' Workshop, literary ghosts whisper to aspiring authors. The pedestrian mall buzzes with students debating poetry over locally roasted coffee, while professors hold impromptu seminars on sunny patios. Tour the Old Capitol's golden dome before catching a reading at the UNESCO City of Literature. Football transforms the town on game days when 70,000 black-and-gold faithful create Kinnick Stadium's legendary wave. The university's natural history museum houses mammoth bones discovered by local farmers. After exploring the Englert Theater's restored grandeur, join locals at Hamburg Inn No. 2 where presidential candidates traditionally stop for pie shakes during primary season.
