  2. State Street is a pedestrian street that extends from the east end of the UW-Madison campus (on Lake Street, right before Library Mall) to the capitol square (the Wisconsin State Capitol). On State Street you'll find a number of ethnic restaurants, small mom-and-pops retail stores, as well as several sidewalk cafes. You'll also see street performers of all kinds, but mostly just hippies playing the guitar. State Street is also home to one of the best Halloween parties in the country. On this short city street, crowds have amassed of over 100,000 people.
