Thinking about a change? Consider Boise Idaho
The land that would become Boise, Idaho, is thought to have been discovered by a group of French Canadian fur trappers. As the story goes, the 19th century travelers looked over Bonneville Point and were immediately impressed with the land's expanse of trees. Today, the city is still commonly referred to as "The City of Trees."
The Basque Museum and Cultural Center in downtown Boise preserves the Basque heritage and gives visitors the opportunity to learn more about this colorful culture through collections of manuscripts, artifacts, documents and photos. The museum also manages educational programs and organizes Basque activities and celebrations that are open to the public.
Boise was incorporated as a city within the Idaho Territory in 1864. At that time, the existing capital of the territory was Lewiston, but many believed Boise was a more desirable choice for the capital. A resolution was drafted to switch the capital to Boise in December of the same year.
An example of Boise's cultural sensitivity is the Idaho Anne Frank Human Rights Memorial located in the North End neighborhood of the city. The memorial is an educational park honoring the struggles of Anne Frank under the weight of religious and cultural persecution. The site was built with citizen donations and through fundraising efforts of Idaho school children. You can learn all this and more at the Boise Homes Guide.
