Welcome to Wisconsin,
The Badger State!
Wisconsin is bordered by the Montreal River; Lake Superior and Michigan to the north; by Lake Michigan to the east; by Illinois to the south; and by Iowa to the southwest and Minnesota to the northwest.
Tourism is also a major industry in Wisconsin drawing thousands of visitors annually, with festivals such as Summerfest and the EAA Oshkosh Airshow claiming international attention, along with hundreds of thousands of visitors.
Given the large number of lakes and rivers in the state, water recreation is very popular. The distinctive Door Peninsula, which extends off the eastern coast of the state, contains one of the state’s tourist destinations, Door County. |
