Michigan is a very special place — a peninsula surrounded by 84% of the Earth's fresh water supply, with dense forests and beautiful wildlife. The cities hold just as much beauty and history, with Ann Arbor being one of the go-to destinations. From the hallowed halls of the university to the best deli in Michigan, we'll break down the must-see locations in this 200-year-old city.

Kerrytown

Located in the Old Fourth Ward, Kerrytown offers a quaint place to stroll and shop. With unique boutiques, visitors can sample gourmet oils and vinegars, admire sculpture and paintings from local artists, or browse for one-of-a-kind jewelry. A lovely farmer's market is held throughout the week where you can enjoy seasonal offerings from farms around the state. If you can, snag something cherry-related — Michigan is well known for these delicious tree fruits. And after your stroll, make sure to check out the most famous restaurant in the area...

Zingerman's Deli

This deli is a must-try. Walking through the doors, you may feel a little overwhelmed — and that's a good thing. The two-story deli functions as both a take-away spot and a sit-down restaurant. Cured meats hang from the ceiling, the smell of fresh-baked bread fills the air, and heaps of cold salads enter your eye line. Our suggestion for navigating this behemoth? Take your time. Wander around, see what people are eating and ordering, and grab a sample if you're lucky. Once you order, browse the aisles — they're filled with fantastic jarred items. Trust us when we say our mouths are watering just thinking about a Zingerman's sandwich.

The University of Michigan

Also known as UofM, this university was founded over 200 years ago — before Michigan was even a state! Prestige has grown over the decades, with the U-M Business and Law schools being among the most highly sought-after degrees in the country. Strolling the campus gives you a real sense of history, with large-scale stone buildings and beautiful old trees at every turn. UofM is also home to the largest college football stadium in the nation — affectionately nicknamed "Big House" — with an official capacity of 107,601. The roar of the fans is overwhelming and the energy is infectious when you catch a game here.
