Iowa City has built its identity around words and rivers, home to the world's first UNESCO City of Literature in the United States and a college-town energy that spills into every corner of downtown. Wander past the Iowa River and you'll find a dense cluster of independent bookshops, coffeehouses, and restaurants serving everything from Midwest comfort food to international fare. When family or friends come to visit for a Hawkeyes game or literary festival, the local hotels fill up fast, so plan ahead.
