Michigan
The birthplace of the automotive industry and Motown, Michigan has had a profound impact on both the automobile industry and global music culture. Beyond its cities of music and industry, the Midwestern state also offers an abundance of natural beauty. Famously bordered by the four of the five Great Lakes, a visit to Michigan provides beautiful waterside sunsets and the opportunity to engage in lakeside water sports. The freshwater coastline has influenced the economy, culture, and early settlements for centuries. The natural and historical sites of Michigan highlight innovation and nature in a memorable way.
