10 Monuments & Statues in Ohio That You Shouldn't Miss
If you are looking for an active place to stay with world-class attractions, Ohio’s major cities can satisfy any vacation desire. Each offers its own distinct flavor of fun, from professional sports – Bengals (Cincinnati), Cavaliers (Cleveland) and Indians (Cleveland again) – to museums, outdoor activities and more. One of the most famous is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. If football is your thing, don’t miss the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton. For the science-minded, visit the meat eaters at the Carnivore Conservation Center in the Wilds near Cambridge, dedicated to the breeding and scientific study of endangered mid-sized carnivores. Kids will also love Planet Snoopy in Sandusky or the Columbus Zoo’s Zoombezi Bay Waterpark and Jack’s Landing rides.

one of the best benefits of my military service is the availability of both myself and my wife being laid to rest in this beautiful memorial park. On my weekly visit to my late wife's grave, I am always impressed with how well the cemetery is maintained and how hard the grounds crew works to keep it that way. I have visited her weekly for the past 3 years and it is always worth the visit.

I am very, very appreciative of whomever invested in this. As a non-combatant veteran have visited 94 National Cemeteries or other veterans cemeteries including Normandy and the Punchbowl in Hawaii and many other memorials. It is sobering to consider that these men and women purchased our freedom in the Revolutionary War, protected it in 1812, freed the slaves in 1865, saved Europe in 1918, ended the Holocaust in 1945 and have protected the cause of freedom in many lands since. American veteran cemeteries have the traditional slab, but like the 26 cemeteries managed my the American Battle Monuments Commission oversees, Sunbury has crosses or Stars of David.

Learned History of the Lake and island. Major Ship battles and a nice 15 minute video. Great view from the tower and the guides gave us some more about the History

The main draw of Hopewell Culture National Historical Park is the Mound City Group, a collection of large reconstructed mounds commemorating the Hopewell tribe.

This National Park focuses on the many Native American burial mounds in the area and the miracle of their conservation . The movie about this place was very educational. We have been to other burial mound sites in this country and others. This park is well documented and worth a short visit. There is a hiking path through the trees between the visitor center and the river and the mounds themselves are close to the Visitor Center and easily accessible. No admission charge for this park.

My wife and I made a quick 5 and 1/2 hour road trip to visit Point Pleasant and we loved every second of it. Stayed at the Historic Lowe Hotel and of course visited the Mothman statue. You can log into the live camera and watch all the shenanigans the statue attracts haha! We are at the Hibachi House which was great, visited the Mothman museum and all of the little shops around, and checked out the River and the fort etc. and for our finale, we visited the super creepy TNT domes!! Highly recommend visiting Point Pleasant and all the spooky weird fun it has to offer!
