<strong>Idaho</strong> Falls<br />
<strong>Idaho</strong> Falls, once known as Eagle Rock,<br />
is the hub and the largest city in eastern<br />
<strong>Idaho</strong>, so it’s a great place to use as<br />
a base from which to explore the beauty<br />
around you. The Snake River runs<br />
through <strong>Idaho</strong> Falls and is paralleled by<br />
a popular greenbelt. On the east side<br />
of the Snake River, you’ll see one of the<br />
city’s landmark buildings—the impressive<br />
LDS temple, which welcomes visitors.<br />
On the opposite bank, you’ll find<br />
<strong>Idaho</strong> Falls’ hotel row. In between are<br />
the man-made falls on the Snake River,<br />
which gave the city its name.<br />
Downtown <strong>Idaho</strong> Falls is encircled by<br />
beautifully landscaped neighborhoods,<br />
more than 1,200 acres of parks, four<br />
golf courses, and an indoor aquatic center.<br />
Be sure to see the inspiring <strong>Idaho</strong><br />
Vietnam Memorial along the river, off<br />
Fremont Street. <strong>Idaho</strong> Falls is emerging<br />
as a cultural heart of the region with<br />
the outstanding 135,000-square-foot<br />
Museum of <strong>Idaho</strong>, which presents<br />
<strong>Idaho</strong> Falls history and national-caliber<br />
traveling exhibits. Visit the Willard Arts<br />
