Built in 1933, it was once a bustling train station, now guests who visit will enjoy the Cincinnati Museum Center (3 different museums), an OMNIMAX Theater and the Cincinnati History Library and Archives. We chose the Discovery Pass which granted us entry into all three museums, the Cincinnati History Center, Museum of Natural History and Science and the Children’s Museum."
"Built in an abandoned railroad terminal, the Cincinnati History Museum will take you back to the days of trains, steam engines and suspender-clad conductors shouting the day’s schedule. It chronicles the entire rise of Cincinnati while examining its relevance to both Ohio and the American Midwest. Costumed staffers will answer your questions as you browse the exhibits and galleries."

After the decline in the rail transport trend, this was turned into an important landmark housing a number of libraries, museums, theatres, etc. At present, it is the location of the very famous museum that also puts up traveling exhibitions."

The park's beginnings date back to 1911, when its first 27.5 acres of land were sold to the City of Cincinnati by namesake Alexander Langlands Parker.

Located in Deer Park, This hole-in-the-wall rests in the former Kinneret Cafe location and features some impressively-sized crispy chicken and spicy chicken sandwiches that look to be in the same vein as Popeye's fabled versions.

You’ll be hard pressed to find another shop that has as much outdoor seating as this one, so be sure to grab a cone and enjoy it on one of the many wooden benches outside."

"With a menu that features duck breast, pork chops, salmon, seasonal sausage, and grilled octopus, Bauer Farm Kitchen is an upscale restaurant that offers an impressive variety of dishes.
