Iowa City
Iowa City does not reflect the agricultural flavour of the rest of this pastoral state, having a lively cultural scene to complement its renowned University. A number of arts festivals and events are centred on the downtown Pedestrian Plaza around the Old Capitol, while the student population rock and roll at numerous bars and clubs.more A holiday in Iowa City is also a treat for bibliophiles: a number of great authors were spawned at the University and the Prairie Lights bookstore is world famous.
