Green Bay
United States

Green Bay is best known for the Packers, but the city also offers waterfront calm, small-city friendliness, and lesser-known Black history. For Black travelers, it is more of a comfortable Midwest stop than a culture capital, but it has enough local texture to be worthwhile.
