When friends are in town, Reno has more to show them than the casinos. Here's a spread of places with a page on Arch City.

Nevada Museum of Art is the only accredited art museum in the state. National Automobile Museum houses a renowned collection of historic cars, both downtown.

Reno Riverwalk District runs along the Truckee River downtown, with Wingfield Park at its centre and the Truckee River Whitewater Park for kayakers and tubers right in the middle of the city.

For a drink by the water afterwards, The Eddy is a shipping-container beer garden with fire pits on the Riverwalk.

Each spot has a page on Arch City with its address, hours and details. Browse the full directory at archcity.co/venues.
