Tourists tend to overlook Omaha, despite its rich history and exciting culture. But that's fine with Omaha locals, who want all the delicious food and quiet parks to themselves.

Omaha is one of the top ten cities with the most billionaires per capita, but you don't need a lot of money to enjoy the city's offerings.

The Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium features thousands of animals throughout its indoor exhibits and underground caves. It's home to the world's largest indoor desert and North America's largest indoor rain forest. For more plants, check out the Lauritzen Gardens, which has more than 100 acres of plants on display. It's a calm place where people head to relax.

A more hands-on approach to nature comes in the form of the Wildlife Safari Park. Elks, bison, wolves, and eagles all call this area home. Visit the Bob Kerry Pedestrian Bridge for a more relaxed nature experience. The 3,000-foot pathway crosses the Missouri River, connecting over 150 miles of outdoor trails. It leads to a three-acre plaza that is full of entertainment and interactive experiences. This includes live music, so bring a blanket and chairs.

Want to feel like a billionaire? You'll definitely want to check out the Dundee neighborhood, which has some of the best culinary experiences in Omaha. Dario's Brasserie is a French cafe with European-style banquet seating. Mark's Food, Wine & Spirit features Italian classics made with fresh and local ingredients. Acadian Grille Dundee explores Omaha's history with flavorful Cajun staples. The historic neighborhood also features an art gallery and bars. Check out Dundee Dell's, where you can find the nation's largest collection of Scottish whiskey. Don't miss Omaha's Craft Brewery Tour. It stops at nine local breweries, allowing you to sample beer produced by locals.

Locals love to gather at the Old Market, which features several blocks of shops, art galleries, restaurants, and flea markets. Street musicians also flock to the area, where streets are lined with charming buildings. You'll find jewelry, books, antiques, music, and home decor throughout this unique shopping area.

Omaha's Joslyn Castle is a favorite landmark. The 1903 mansion hosts tours every first and third Sunday of the month. The grounds are a sight to see, with rare and exotic foliage from all over the world. There's also a lily pond and greenhouse. It was designed by George and Sarah Joslyn, considered Nebraska elite for their involvement in the print news industry.
