   Michigan Travel Information 

Michigan's primary land mass is referred to as the “Lower Peninsula".  Michigan is a mitten-shaped portion of the state that is surrounded by the 3 Great Lakes of:  Michigan, Huron and Erie.  This area contains the largest cities, including Detroit.  Detroit is known for its industry, primarily the automobile industry, with 2 of the 3 largest automobile companies (GM & Chrysler) headquartered here.  Grand Rapids is the second biggest city in Michigan and lies on the Grand River.  Grand Rapids is a fascinating example of how a city can embrace tradition and keep its eye set on tomorrow.  In addition to the "Lower Peninsula", there is also the rugged "Upper Peninsula" to the Northwest, whose northern border lake is Lake Superior.  As a result of its climate, the Upper Peninsula is a more rural area.  Michigan's history, nature, and recreation will provide you a memorable travel experience.  There is something for everyone when you visit the "Great Lakes" state.
