Indianapolis

Indianapolis, the capital of Indiana, rests southeast of Lake Michigan on the White River. Positioned at the state's heart, it became the capital in 1820. Visitors can explore the Canal Walk, savor waterside dinners, and enjoy downtown sights. The city's global recognition stems from the "Indianapolis 500," the world's largest single-day sporting event, drawing countless motorsport fans each year.
