Must-see attractions

National Underground Railroad Freedom Center

　　Cincinnati was a prominent stop on the Underground Railroad and a hub for abolitionist activities. The center displays artifacts from the era, such as an eerie shackle-filled pen that once held slaves bound for auction. The museum also covers modern struggles for civil rights. The Rosa Parks virtual-reality exhibit ($5...

Roebling Suspension Bridge

　　The elegant 1867 spanner was a forerunner of John Roebling's famous Brooklyn Bridge in New York. The Romanesque arches and draped cables have made it an Instagram star. It's cool to walk across while passing cars make it 'sing' around you (the sound as they drive over the grates). It...

　　Indoor-outdoor Findlay Market lies deep in Over-the-Rhine, in a somewhat blighted section. The wrought iron–framed structure has been a public market since 1855. It's a good stop for fresh produce, meats, cheeses and baked goods. Taste of Belgium and Eli's BBQ are among the merchants selling prepared foods. Craft vendors,...

Contemporary Arts Center

　　The center displays modern art in an avant-garde building designed by star architect Zaha Hadid. The free exhibitions – say, a retrospective of fanciful paper cutouts by street artist Swoon, or the surreal multimedia sculptures of Chris Larson – change every three months or so. Kids go gaga in the...

Fountain Square

　　Fountain Sq is the city's centerpiece, a public space with a seasonal ice rink, free wi-fi, concerts (7pm Wednesday to Saturday in summer), a farmers market (11am to 1:30pm Tuesdays), a Reds ticket kiosk and the fancy old 'Genius of Water' fountain. ...

Graeter's Ice Cream

　　Graeter's is a local delicacy, with scoop shops around the city. This one is on Fountain Sq. The flavors that mix in the gargantuan, chunky chocolate chips top the list. ...

Cincinnati Museum Center

　　This museum complex occupies the 1933 Union Terminal, an art deco jewel still used by Amtrak. The interior has fantastic murals made of local Rookwood tiles. The complex includes a nifty Museum of Natural History (with a cave and real bats inside), a children's museum, a history museum, an Omnimax...

American Sign Museum

　　This museum stocks an awesome cache of flashing, lightbulb-studded beacons in an old parachute factory. You’ll burn your retinas staring at vintage neon drive-in signs, hulking genies and the Frisch’s Big Boy, among other nostalgic novelties. Guides lead hour-long tours at 11am and 2pm that also visit the on-site neon...

Purple People Bridge

　　This pedestrian-only bridge provides a unique crossing from Sawyer Point (a nifty park dotted by whimsical monuments and flying pigs) to Newport, KY. ...
