For a small city, Evansville contains a number of impressive attractions. The Mesker Park Zoo and Botanical Garden features over 700 animals spread over 50 acres. One of the newest exhibits is Amazonia, a rainforest with howler monkeys, toucans, capybaras, and a jaguar. Another place to see the wild is the 190-acre Wesselman Woods Nature Preserve, a hardwood forest with trails, exhibits and wildlife observation areas.

Just the sight of Angel Mounds - a State Historic Site - pushing out of the Indiana countryside is enough to awe anyone. The area around the Mounds served as a town for the Middle Mississippi native culture from 1100 to 1450 AD. The Mounds acted as a home for the chiefs as well as a burial ground.

If you like to play the odds, Casino Aztar along the banks of the Ohio River will satisfy your needs with its Blackjack, Craps, Roulette, and other games. And the Ellis Park Race Track - owned by Churchill Downs - offers exciting thoroughbred racing.
