What are you waiting for? Start planning! 1 – Kickstart your trip with a day at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium So, if you’re looking for the most unique experiences to plan out for your trip to Discovery City, look no further. Urban, trendy, artsy and even quirky at times, the city is considered one of the USA’s “Biggest Small Towns.” Throw in spooky-themed waterparks, a handful of Mother Nature’s best work, and an eclectic cast of yearly festivals, and you’re left with one truly unforgettable state capital. Go on a wine-tasting excursion to the wineries, explore caves and caverns and get an up close and personal view of thousand-year-old stalagmites in person, transport yourself to Europe at the German Village, or spend the day at the iconic Ohio State Fair. Home to some of the nation’s most revered museums, wildlife-abundant parks that span acres and acres of lush greenery, and a food and drink scene that even coastal cities envy (there’s an entire ‘Brewery District’, need we say more?), there’s no shortage of exciting and fun things to do in Columbus. The beating heart of the Midwest and a wildly underrated travel destination, Columbus dishes up a concoction of culture, sport, art, and entertainment to suit every style of traveler.
