Detroit - What you need to know before you go - Go Guides

Detroit is a city that’s gone through a renaissance. Hulking, concrete buildings that were once home to giant motor corporations are now the site of graffiti battles, providing a street art circuit that you can tour by bike. But among this post-industrial landscape, there are glimmers of sumptuous beauty, such as the Fox Theater, where you can enjoy ovation-worthy performances beneath the gilded, domed ceiling.

Then there’s the super-cool Hitsville USA, the recording studio that produced Motown’s greatest hits, and bustling Eastern Market where you can dine at food carts. The swinging nightlife is topped off by Michigan’s legendary real ales on tap.
