1 day in Springfield Itinerary

Springfield is the capital of Illinois, but its real significance is as the hometown of Abraham Lincoln.

You've added Monticello Railway Museum, Lincoln Log Cabin, Abraham Lincoln Statue, and other attractions to your itinerary. On the 8th (Sat), snap pictures at Sugar Creek Covered Bridge, get a taste of life in the country at Henry's Rabbit Ranch, don't miss a visit to Vandalia Statehouse State Historic Site, then see the interesting displays at Air Combat Museum, then appreciate the history behind Abraham Lincoln Statue, and finally take in nature's colorful creations at Washington Park Botanical Gardens.
