Reno's downtown area is rife with historic buildings and architecture; to enjoy it while staying relatively cool, take a walk along the historic The River Walk District. The walkway winds through downtown and is not only scenic in its own right, it highlights the whole downtown area giving it an added touch of natural beauty amid the busy commercial landscape.

After enjoying a stellar meal and walking around a bit, the perfect choice for an after-dinner drink is the Vintage Court Bar. This elegant wine bar features over 30 selections of white, red and sparkling wines and they are all dramatically displayed in a unique wine cellar setting. This very popular addition to Harrah's Hotel and Casino has been a hit with locals and visitors alike, so get a table near the window and enjoy your glass of wine while watching Reno's nightlife unfold before your eyes.

Galena Creek Park is a favorite of nature lovers, and it doesn't matter if the weather is warm or cold. During the warmer months, the walking trails lead the way for outdoor exploration and open areas make it an ideal place to take the family or commune with the park's natural beauty. In the winter, cross-country skiing is the order of the day, and many ski buffs and snow bunnies make Galena Creek Park their home away from home.

Ready for something completely different? If you're comfortable in a rough and tumble atmosphere and want some great loud music and cold beer, then Davidson's Distillery is the perfect hangout for you. There's always music, whether on stage or from the jukebox, and bikers and other tough characters frequent what may be Reno's loudest best-kept secret.
