Cradled in the foothills of the Montana Rockies, surrounded by pristine forests, alive with history and culture, lies Helena, "the heartbeat of Montana." This charming, sophisticated and beautiful Victorian city is both the capital of the state of Montana and the county seat for Lewis and Clark County.

Helena is a unique blend of the past and the present, whether it's business suits or blue jeans...people from all walks of life can find an environment to suit their lifestyle. The city itself is alive with community spirit, street festivals, theater, museums, symphonies, fairs and rodeos.

Helena's beautiful downtown, rich in history, offers a delightful shopping and browsing experience. In the heart of this area is the Pedestrian Walking Mall, a park-like outdoor shopping area of historic sites and a diverse array of unique shops, coffeehouses and restaurants.

Take a moment to explore Helena and discover the beauty, the culture and the people that make Helena, and Montana, The Last Best Place.
