Many people tell me that they want to come visit Minnesota, but never in the winter because it's too cold. Well, I can't argue with that as it is freezing during the six months of winter. However, Minnesota has so many other things to offer than frostbite.

1. Mall of America.

Many people are not aware of the fact that this beauty is found in the northern tundra.

2. Four seasons.

There are not many states that can say they get the full experience of all the seasons.

3. Beautiful winters.

Even though the winters may freeze your eyelids shut, the view before that is beautiful.

4. Great practice driving.

Nothing like having constant practice driving in the worst conditions possible.

5. Culture

Minnesota has some of the most diverse and beautiful culture.

Many people never think about visiting the amazing state of Minnesota when they hear that temps do actually reach in the negatives. However, aside from that, the state truly has some unique opportunies to offer the ones brave enough to endure the journey to the State of Hockey.
