Sioux Falls at a Glance
Founded at the dramatic waterfalls of the Big
Sioux River near the borders between Iowa,
Minnesota and South
Dakota, Sioux Falls is the largest city in South
Dakota. With engaging museums, eclectic art galleries and several golf courses
and parks, Sioux Falls provides a mixture of history, culture and recreation.
A livestock and agricultural hub, Sioux Falls is an important distribution center
for farms and communities in the northern plains of the United
States. Dozens of lakes and thousands of acres of open prairie yield exceptional
hunting and fishing opportunities. For family fun, spend a day at Wild
Water West Waterpark. The city's Western and pioneer heritage is proudly displayed
in festivals like Spirit
of the West, which celebrates the early days of Sioux Falls in the 19th century.
Other annual events in Sioux Falls include Siouxland
Renaissance Festival in June, JazzFest
in July and Sidewalk
Arts Festival in September.
