"Eden Park is one of Cincinnati's most scenic overlook parks, spanning more than 186 acres throughout the city's Walnut Hills and Mount Adams neighborhoods. The park's lands were originally developed in 1869 as a vineyard known as the Garden of Eden, overseen by regional horticulturalist Nicholas Longworth. After the vineyard's acquisition by the City of Cincinnati, the park area was transformed into a gorgeous urban oasis designed by landscape architect Adolph Strauch."

Eye-catching landscape features abound, including the lighted water jets of Fath and Main Street Fountains, the oversized swings and shade pergolas of the Duke Energy Garden, and the unique P&G Vibrantscape playspace, which features talking tubes, a giant foot piano, and other interactive activities for visitors of all ages."

"The Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal preserves Cincinnati's historic Union Terminal building, constructed in 1933 as a passenger train station and considered to be one of the United States' finest preserved examples of Art Deco architecture. The terminal was preserved as a National Historic Landmark in 1977 and was saved from demolition in 1986 after a vote to convert the building into a museum center for Cincinnati families to enjoy. Today, the terminal houses a number of family-friendly science and cultural museums, including the Cincinnati History Museum, the Museum of Natural History and Science, and the Duke Energy Children's Museum."

"Formerly known as the Cincinnati Union Terminal, this was a beautiful railroad station originally.
