Why you should go…

This stretch of downtown Little Rock along the Arkansas River centers on Ottenheimer Market Hall, built in 1996, where you can eat your way through a mix of food vendors. A farmers' market sets up in the pavilions, and Riverfront Park, the Vogel Schwartz Sculpture Garden and an amphitheater sit a short walk away. The Museum of Discovery is in the district, and the Clinton Presidential Library anchors the eastern end. Streetcars run through the area.
