| Travel Guide for Ohio Geographically the easternmost of the Great Lake states, with Lake Erie to the north and the Ohio River to the south as its natural boundaries, the Beautiful Ohio is the cultural and geographical crossroads in America's Heartland. Well-timbered with buckeyes, well-cultivated by the pre-Native American Adena and Hopewell Indians, and well-developed through the collaborative hands of Great Lakes industrial sector and Midwest agricultural base, the Buckeye State wins over in the country's fiercely-competitive tourist industry with picturesque varying landscapes, incredible outdoor recreation opportunities, astounding history and heritage contributions and amazing family-oriented attractions and activities. Located in the heart of the Midwest, this slice of the nation is, to a largely veritable extent, a microcosm of America. Dubbed "The Heart of It All", Ohio is accessible to 50% of the United States population within a 500 mile radius of the state. A great getaway so close to home, yet away from it all, Ohio is the perfect destination where no one will feel out of place. Thanks to its crucial location, Ohio contains a bit of everything America, calling up elements of the Appalachia, Midwest, Northeast, and the Upper South. Home to Wilbur and Orville Wright brothers who invented the veritable modern airplane, Neil Armstrong, the first to set foot on the moon, and John Glenn, the first American to orbit the earth, Ohio also lays claim to the distinction as "The Birthplace of Aviation Pioneer". To better understand that heritage, resort to Dayton's Aviation Hall of Fame, Aviation Heritage National Historical Park, National Museum of the United States Air Force, and Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Cleveland's NASA John Glenn Research Center and Wapakoneta's Neil Armstrong Air &Space Museum are well-established resources too. "The Mother of Presidents" further distinguishes itself by sending eight of its native sons to the White House. Presidential homes and memorials can be found throughout the state, most notably the Warren G. Harding Presidential Memorial in Marion, James A. Garfield National Historic Site near Cleveland, Hayes Presidential Center in Fairmont, National McKinley Memorial Library& Museum in Niles, Ulysses S. Grant's Birthplace in Point Pleasant and President William McKinley Memorial and Museum in Canton. A mosaic of gleaming urbanized zones dotting the expanses of fertile farmland, rolling hills overlooking broad river valleys, and forested mountain ranges abounding with all sorts of game and recreation opportunities, it's not unrealistic to live whatever style of Americana you're feeling partial to in Ohio. Unlike most other states, Ohio is dominated by not just one but a triumvirate of "C"ities, namely Cleveland, Cincinnati and Columbus. Having helped forge the industrial age and managed to hit the balance between the nostalgic Old and innovative New, these gleaming metropolises are where families find ethnic neighborhoods, restored historical architecture, funky arts, trendy entertainment, interactive museums, happening events, professional sports games, and red-hot thrill rides in the many theme parks. Cleveland area truly rocks! Music lovers make annual pilgrimage to Cleveland for its Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. Aircraft enthusiast fall in love with NASA John Glenn Research Center and Crawford Auto-Aviation Museum. Outdoor aficionados test their agility on Lake Farmpark and Mapleside Farms. Art and culture buffs find themselves lost in the exhibits showcased in Cleveland Museum of Art and Cleveland Museum of Natural History. And kids would be in heaven! Kid-friendly attractions serving the Cleveland metro area include the Great Lakes Science Center, the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo and the RainForest, African Safari Wildlife Park in Port Clinton, Cedar Point Amusement Park in Sandusky, Geauga Lake Family Amusement Park in Aurora, etc. While planning to stay at hotels in Cleveland Ohio, a refreshing waterfront location is something you may be most desirous of. Rest assured most of the national brand Cleveland Ohio hotels would accommodate your preference perfectly. Cincinnati, the Queen City, is the country's first boom town rife with upbeat big city vibe and lovable small town atmosphere. Geared to fit every particular requirement of the family, Cincinnati offers the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center for history buffs, Cincinnati Art Museum, Taft Museum of Art and Contemporary Art Museum for potential Dali, Cincinnati Museum Center for culture vultures, and Beach Waterpark, Paramount's Kings Island, and Cincinnati Zoo for the little ones. The more popular Cincinnati hotels boast waterfront location too, but this time, not the lakeside location, as hotels in Cleveland Ohio do, but the riverside location on the northern bank of the Ohio River. The capital and the largest city of Ohio is Columbus, the commercial, educational, geographical and transportation hub of the Buckeye State. With its greatest charm displayed in the ethnically unique German Village, the amusing Columbus Zoo & Aquarium and Wyandot Lake Adventure Park, the interactive Center of Science and Industry, the lush Franklin Park Conservatory, and the Columbus Museum of Art and Ohio Historical Center, Columbus creates a wholesome family urban vacation experience. Choices of hotels in Ohio's capital city seem almost endless. As far as popular Columbus Ohio hotels is concerned, you can opt for downtown Columbus Ohio hotels, which put you steps from it all, or Columbus Ohio airport hotels near the Port Columbus International Airport. If you'd like to escape the hectic urban life, getting in touch with nature and simpler life could not be easier than in Ohio. From the stretches of sandy beaches and the bundle of paradisiac islands along the Lake Erie shoreline to forested Hocking Hills State Park, from the nation's largest Amish settlement in Holmes Country to the enigmatic traces of early inhabitants in Serpent Mound State Memorial, from the Cuyahoga Valley National Park to the Wayne National Forest, ways to converse with pure simplicity are plentiful. Exclusive resort hotels in Ohio near the state parks, or rustic country inns and bed and breakfasts in the Amish Country, nothing beats the chance to breathe the fresh air.
