Little Rock Travel Guide: 134 reviews and 301 photos

I went to Little Rock for a day mainly to see the Clinton Library, but stayed for a few hours more to see downtown and have some lunch. This picture was taken from North Little Rock along the River Trail. Here you can tour the submarine seen in the foreground, but I dont know how much it costs because it was closed when I went. Other than that, there is nothing to see from this side of the river except the skyline and Alltel Arena just behind me.

The Old State House was built in the first half of the 19th century and served as the capitol building for 75 years. It is now a small local history museum that is free to tour, but I did not go in myself.

This is the back side of the Peabody Hotel, with a nice big fountain overlooking the river. The disappointing riverpark is just below here.

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Has a lot of potential to be a nice city
  • Cons:Isn't fully living up to that potential yet
  • In a nutshell:Quaint southern river city
