Travel Info & Hotels
Host City: Saint Paul, Minnesota
Built along the bluffs overlooking the Mississippi River, the City of Saint Paul has taken painstaking
care in preserving its rich history and magnificent architecture. Visitors marvel at St. Paul's Old
World charm. Summit Avenue boasts one of the country's longest stretches of uninterrupted residential
Victorian architecture, with its wrought iron gates, stained glass windows, enduring stone, and white
marble pillars. And standing atop hills overlooking downtown are two of the city's architectural
masterpieces—the State Capitol, crowned by the largest unsupported marble dome in the world, and the
Cathedral of Saint Paul, modeled after Saint Peter's in Rome.
St. Paul has a large ethnically diverse population and offers a variety of cultural entertainment,
museums, historic sites, sporting activities, shopping venues, restaurants, and night life. You'll
find many of these options located within walking distance of the official Snow Conference hotels.
For more information about St. Paul, visit the St. Paul Convention & Visitors Bureau website at
