Old Market is a charming district in downtown Omaha, close to great hotels and the CenturyLInk Centre (formerly Qwest Center). This is a nice variety of things to do in Old Market from carriage rides, cobblestone streets, and delightful restaurants, pubs, and shops.

This is beautiful. A MUST SEE. Cobblestones on the streets, policemen on horseback. The roofs have flowers hanging from them in the summer, and there are carriage rides and great restaurants and pubs. Don't forget the Old Market PASSAGEWAY -- it's free. More

Balloon animal makers come by to entertain the kids. You can also find many unique shops to visit, including a Christmas store that is amazing! Would... More
