In a world that seems to always be distracting your mind and spirit, sometimes it is necessary to refocus on what is really important. That is the ultimate goal of the Rainbow Shop in Bismarck. This charming and inviting establishment offers the best in Christian books, music, gifts and more. In addition to its impressive inventory of contemporary titles that focus on spirituality, marriage and other issues, the shop offers a stunning selection of crosses, candles and other religious items.

If you think that the concept of the cowboy was invented by John Wayne-types, Bismarck's North Dakota Cowboy Hall of Fame will challenge everything you think you know about cattle rustlers from the past. This attraction is an interpretive center for the history of Native Americans, and you will see the dramatic link between their culture to various “western” traditions like the rodeo, ranching, and the rustic “cowboy” lifestyle that owes much to the tribes that first inhabited the land.

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!
