"Top five places to visit in Michigan"

 I have lived in Michigan for nineteen years and there are a few places I make a priority to visit at least once a year. Depending on what time of year it is, I like to take my out of town guest to these places too.
1.      The Detroit Zoo is one of my favorite places to visit during the summer and entertaining for all ages. It is home to over 3,000 animals and 280 species.  It is also located in Royal Oak which is also a fun place to have dinner after a fun day at the zoo.
2.      I traveled to Gran Haven last summer and had a blast camping on the beach. The water was refreshing and the waves were big enough for boogie boarding. The beach is located right off of like Michigan and has a towering lighthouse located at the pier. They have mobile home campsites for overnight stay or you can just visit for the day. It’s a fun place to take Michigan visitors or residents that have never been.
3.      If guest plan on traveling to Michigan during mid January, I highly recommend visiting the North American International Auto Show. Even if they are not car enthusiast, it is still pretty fun. Many people just go there to take pictures of the cars and fantasize about owning them, like I do.
4.      One place that I always take my family when they come to visit is the mall. I love shopping and I always set aside a day for it. I usually take my guest to Twelve Oaks because it is close to my house and has something for everybody.

5.      Whenever my family comes to visit we always go to Dearborn. Since I am of middle-eastern decent, I take my family here to indulge in traditional Middle-eastern cuisine. This may not be a place where other people take their guest but for my family it is in our top five places to visit.
