Empowering Outings for Mother-Daughter Duos
Newsweek US|May 19, 2023
Getting a mani-pedi, taking a spa day, enjoying a drink on a sun-covered patio while gossiping about family or taking in the latest playhouse production are a great way to spend mother-daughter time. But there are lots of other options as well. The destinations on this list are atypical but stand as symbols of female history and accomplishment that are worthy of exploration, whether you're looking to empower the next generation, or simply interested in learning the history of formidable women who have walked before us

Empowering Outings for Mother-Daughter Duos

01 No Place Like Home 

Academy Museum of Motion Pictures

LOS ANGELES

There's no more prominent family of Academy Award winners in motion picture history than Judy Garland, Vincente Minnelli and Liza Minnelli. Artifacts from Garland's heralded Wizard of Oz movie, including her famous red slippers, are on display at the museum.

02 Frequent Flyers 

The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa

RIVERSIDE, CALIFORNIA

The Mission Inn is a U.S. National Historical Landmark and a California Historical Landmark, and it's on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. One of its walls The "Famous Fliers Wall" at the St. Francis Atrio features the names of some of the world's foremost female aviators including American Amelia Earhart and Australian Maude Bonney.

03 Famous Five 

Emily Murphy Park

EDMONTON, ALBERTA

The Famous Five were a group of suffragettes who did more than just advocate for women's rights. One of the best known is Emily Murphy, an Edmonton resident who took up the cause of getting women named as "persons" under Canadian law. This accomplishment should not overshadow some of Murphy's more controversial, anti-immigrant views, however. Emily Murphy Park, along the North Saskatchewan River, connects to the Alberta Legislature Grounds via walking trails.

04 Artistic Aesthetic 

Museo Frida Kahlo

MEXICO CITY, MEXICO
