With everything from fine dining to \u201cgrab-n-go\u201d munching, friendly community, fun activities, and historical architecture, there truly is no city like Boise. Oh, and did we mention?! It\u2019s so clean, even the graffiti is organized in one designated space (Freak Alley)! Natives and longtime residents of Boise pronounce the city \u201cboy-see\u201d while outsiders typically say \u201cboy-zee\u201d so if you&#8217;re the newbie that has been pronouncing our name wrong\u2026 we forgive you, but now you know so there\u2019s no excuse moving forward!&nbsp;<\/span><\/p><p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Poppins; color: rgb(52, 52, 52); -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); min-height: 25px;\"><span style=\"font-kerning: none;\"><\/span><br><\/p><p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Poppins; color: rgb(52, 52, 52); -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(29, 29, 29); background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\"><span style=\"font-kerning: none;\">Boise\u2019s geothermal energy system is the largest of its kind in the U.S. and the sixth-largest worldwide. Downtown Boise\u2019s capitol building is the only capitol building in the entire U.S. heated by geothermal waters. The heat comes from hot springs located 3,000 feet underground. Modern geothermal use in Idaho began in 1892 and currently keeps over 300 buildings warm throughout the state! Pretty cool (and hot) if you ask us! If you are looking for a safe and authentic downtown experience, be sure to pay a visit to Idaho\u2019s capital city!<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Boise, our capital city, holds a dear place in our hearts and is known abroad as an untouched oasis set apart from the average city.
