Leah moved to North Dakota when she was 12 years old and has traveled from the Red River Valley to the badlands and many places in between. She loves small-town life and currently enjoys living on a small farm in the ND prairie. She's always had a passion for writing and has participated in novel writing challenges such as NaNoWriMo multiple times. Her favorite part about this job is recognizing small businesses that deserve a boost and seeing the positive affect her articles can have on their traffic, especially in rural areas that might have otherwise gone overlooked.
What do you think of when you think of a place that is everything North Dakotan? This particular town might be considered the most with everything it has. From the scenery to the attractions within, this city in the Peace Garden State encompasses the essentials. If you haven’t been here yet you’ll want to put it on your list and visit it as soon as possible. Keep reading and see why:
Jamestown, North Dakota is located along the river that shares the same name. It is in the heart of the prairie and the scenery definitely invokes a feeling of North Dakota.
Heading into town, you can expect to find this telltale site that is pretty much a staple to every place in ND: the train tracks and the grain elevators.
As you move further into the city, Jamestown becomes the picture-perfect downtown area of the state. It has locally owned businesses, plenty of restaurants, and the kind of community people love.
Not only that, but Jamestown has the most fascinating historic type of North Dakota town as well. The Frontier Village brings together tons of antique buildings to create what Jamestown itself probably looked like in its early days.
Jamestown is also a place where the buffalo roam! The bison is one of the first thing people may think of when thinking of NoDak, and Jamestown has an entire attraction centered around them.
The National Buffalo Museum has North Dakotan history and all you need to know about these huge beasts. It also has the live herd with rare albino and white bison, at one point having the only true albino bison in the world.
Plus, who could forget Dakota Thunder? This massive structure depicts North Dakota's most popular animal in a gigantic scale. And with that name, you have a place that is perfectly North Dakotan.
