About Detroit
Detroit is the Motor City of Michigan, on the Detroit River facing Canada, known for car history, Motown music, a great art museum and Art Deco towers.
Detroit stands on the Detroit River, which separates Michigan from Ontario, so that Canada lies south of the downtown skyline. The city made its name as the centre of the American car industry, and its Art Deco skyscrapers, including the Guardian Building with its colourful brick and tile, date from that boom. The Renaissance Center towers on the riverfront, and a riverwalk runs for several kilometres along the water.
Top-ranked sights in Detroit: Campus Martius Park, The Spirit of Detroit, LEGOLAND® Discovery Center Michigan.
