Tips from locals
A short walk on the edges of the Detroit river with scenic views of the Detroit and Windsor skylines.
Adjacent to the Renaissance Center is the Detroit Riverwalk, connecting a series of areas developed to make the most of the city’s east riverfront.

This is a really fun place to walk along the Detroit river and look at Canada. Sometimes there are vendors there with food.

Park
“Can you swim in the Detroit River? Yes! Don't worry, Belle Isle is way upriver of all the industrial junk spewing stuff downriver, and you get one of my favorite views of the city and the Ambassador Bridge from this beach.”

Restaurant
“This vegan friendly healthy comfort food will surely knock your socks off. You'll questions yourself after every bite if it's meat or not. Guarantee you it is not. Their moth watering BBQ tofu burger with a side of sweet potatoes and salad is our favorite. Call and reserve a seat if you plan to dine here between 2 and 7 p.m. This fun eatery stays busy for a delicious reason.”
