Sitting on the banks of the Ohio River, Cincinnati is a well-rounded city with a little bit of everything to offer. It has a strong waterfront tradition, as evident by its iconic Roebling Suspension Bridge and surrounding green spaces. Visitors and residents can also enjoy its steep historical tradition. It is home to the Harriet Beecher Stowe House, former president William Howard Taft’s birthplace, and the Cincinnati Art Museum with hundreds of impressive works.

Some of Cincinnati’s most popular attractions include the Old St. Mary’s Church, Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden, Taft Museum of Art, Contemporary Arts Center, and the captivating Over-the-Rhine neighborhood.
