One of the most beautiful art-deco buildings I've ever been in. Super lavish and luxurious feeling, the bar is a great place to go have a few drinks if you're in the mood to dress up. The restaurant is spectacular - one of the best dinners you can have in Cincinnati.

If you've ever wanted to walk between 50-foot walls of ferns then this is the place for you. Not a long hike and expect your shoes to get a little wet.

Apparently the Emerald Lake Trail is the top don't-miss one! If you go during the summer there are tons of electric storms and thunder storms so be prepared.

On a clear day you can see almost the entire city (including the Hollywood sign!) from up here. Going up right before sunset is apparently pretty spectacular.

Fall is apparently one of the most beautiful times to visit as the leaves are changing and the sky is a beautiful blue. Peak colors are mid to late October. Go for the hikes that take you to mountain tops for some spectacular views.

One of the most beautiful and storied buildings in Cincinnati. Home to the Omnimax theatre where they are constantly changing from one hour-long documentary to the next amazing one. Definitely worth going to see as many of them as possible. They also bring some pretty cool exhibits to the city, I went to see Bodies here a few years ago. It's a great place to take kids on a rainy or blustery winter day.

Bit off the beaten path but apparently totally worth the trip! A short hike from the parking area will you take you to an area that looks straight out of Jurassic Park.

Take the metro and avoid parking if you can! It's not far from the station. Apparently under 17 gets in for free and there are a bunch of interactive exhibitions you can play around with.

Super creepy history - they used to test polio vaccines on kids here. Only a 2-hour drive from Brooklyn, it makes for a pretty good day-trip from the city.

Pretty short hike up to Bear Gulch Reservoir. There are a few caves that fill up with bats and apparently the Bear Gulch Cave is not to be missed if it's open!
