Today the capital city and cultural center of Iowa is revitalized. A versatile destination everyone will enjoy, Des Moines has an itinerary for almost every interest. Culture and art enthusiasts may want to roam through the Des Moines Art Center, spend the weekend museum-hopping or attend a Broadway-caliber performance at the Civic Center. Golfers can spend their time and energy teeing up at any of the area's fine championship courses. The Blank Park Zoo and the Iowa State Fairgrounds should be on the list for families. And gardeners will savor the fantastic blooms at the Botanical Center and the Better Homes and Gardens Test Garden. Mix it up a little and sample all this "big city with a small town heart" has to offer.

Escape Chambers DM is like nothing you have ever seen before. Located on the south side of downtown Des Moines, Escape Chambers DM is the real-life incarnation of movies like Saw, National Treasure, Sherlock Holmes, and The DaVinci Code. Puzzles, riddles, and coded messages are your only means of escape, as this is more a mental challenge than physical. EC Tactical Laser Tag C Tactical Lasertag offers a unique tactical combat experience like nothing else. We defy what one would normally think about when they hear the words "laser tag." We feature metal weapons, indoor multi-level buildings, and objective-based game play. We're far closer to a modern video game than traditional laser tag. We offer walk-in play, birthday parties, bachelor(ette) parties, corporate team building, and whatever type of event you can come up with! We have no bulky vests, no cheap feeling plastic guns, and no black lights.
I had never been axe throwing before. Wayne was very helpful and informative both with instructions for axe throwing technique and explaining the various escape rooms available. It’s a great place to enjoy some drinks, good company and just have fun! I’d do it again without hesitation!

Awesome bridge over the dam. Fascinating to watch the water fall and swirl. Powerful river in the spring. Very cute fishing pole and bobber play area for kids. Beautiful, clean bridge and park. Connects up to the bike and walk path. Can go anywhere on the path up or down river. Suggest doing the walking loop across this bridge, then down to the red bridge on south side of Downtown, then walk back up. We did this and enjoyed it!
