Hark back to a time when steamboats ruled the country's waterways as the chief means of transportation. Those mighty vessels had to be constructed, and it was no easy task! Learn about the fascinating and sometimes complicated story of how steamboats were built when you take a tour of the Steamboat Warehouse. This State Historical Marker is located on the east bank of the Missouri River in Bismarck across the road from the water treatment plant and it stands to commemorate the Northern Pacific Railroad warehouse where the steamboats were originally constructed.
You'll go absolutely wild when you plan a visit to Bismarck's Dakota Zoo. This renowned facility is located on the east bank of the Missouri River in Sertoma Park. The attraction holds the distinction of being the state's largest zoo. The expansive venue is home to over 500 reptiles, birds, and mammals. In addition to offering tours to various school groups, the zoo also presents special exhibits and seasonal programs throughout the year.
Get a stunning picture of the incredible art scene when you buy a picture---or several of them–at Bismark's highly popular Five Nations Art Depot.

The works of more than 200 North Dakota American Indian artists are on display and available for sale, so the chances are better than good that you'll find something you'll want to bring home with you!
