A Fresh Perspective on Travel Every Day
Numerous travelers perceive Ohio as solely Amish Country, where the predominant activity is cow tipping. This perception is widely misconstrued. Although dairy farming plays a significant role in Ohio’s economy, the state also boasts one of the nation’s fastest roller coasters and a prominent rock and roll museum.
Columbus is the capital of Ohio, with an estimated population of 900,000 as of 2015. The initial inhabitants were tribes known as the Mound Builders, who over 5,000 years constructed various earthen mounds for religious, ceremonial, and burial purposes. The first permanent European settlers arrived in the Midwest around the 1700s and aptly named the capital after the renowned explorer Christopher Columbus.
Ohio is often unfairly labeled as a flyover state – a region of the American Midwest observed only from high altitudes. However, adhering to this stereotype would result in missing out on the fascinating museums and Amish communities the state has to offer. Furthermore, you would be deprived of an array of romantic weekend excursions available in Ohio.
