About Omaha

Located on the Missouri River, Omaha first began expansion in 1863, the year President Lincoln chose it as the terminus of the first Transcontinental Railroad. Since then, the city has maintained steady growth, and several magazines have selected it as one of the best places to live in America. The locals are quick to agree, taking pride in the area's economic growth as well as its cultural events and leisure opportunities. Omaha's natural beauty is accentuated by numerous parks and gardens, which offer an idyllic haven for joggers, cyclists, and other outdoor enthusiasts. Learn about local wildlife and more exotic creatures at the Henry Doorly Zoo, considered one of the best in the country. Or stay indoors, browsing the city's cosmopolitan mix of art galleries, antique stores, fine restaurants, bistros and clubs. Since its railroad days, this crossroads at the center of the US has stayed on track, living up to its reputation as the pride of the heartland.
