History and drama converge at the Bing Crosby Theater, also known as the Metropolitan Performing Arts Center. This structure originally opened in 1915 as the Old Clemmer Theatre and has since been added to the National List of historic Places. The stage in this vintage venue has been the place where several classic performances have taken place, among them such notable stage presentations of Gone with the Wind and The Godfather. Today, it is widely considered to be Spokane's most impressive venue where ballets, plays, classical concerts, and other entertainment still electrifies audiences.

The Spokane River offers plenty of water sports and recreation activities, but one favorite is river rafting. The water's intensity varies with the time of year, as during the cooler months the conditions are more amenable for whitewater rafting and in the summer, when the river's volume is low, you can choose to float which is less intense but still quite enjoyable.

The Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist is a stunning display of architecture, history and spirituality. This South Hill landmark features Gothic-style design made in sandstone which was completed in 1969. When you step inside, you will be immediately struck by the stained-glass windows that all feature various Biblical scenes, as well as the various carvings inside that illustrate the history of the church. Tours are offered four days a week, but if you decide to take the tour on Thursday, you will also be able to hear the awe-inspiring sound of the cathedral's weekly 49-bell carillon concert.
