Minnesota has over 10,000 lakes and is home to Rochester, known for its famous foods and Memorial Day celebrations. The state offers various leisure activities like movies, bowling, and live sports viewing. Minneapolis contains the largest mall in the USA, which employs around 12,000 people and sees 35-40 million yearly visits. It also has the largest indoor theme park and LEGO area in the world. Winters see heavy snow and temperatures down to -40, so the presenter does not recommend visiting during that season due to limited activities.
