Whether you\u2019re taking an easy journey in a sedan or a more exciting drive in a sports car, you will want a little wiggle room in your schedule, since Cincinnati has a way of surprising you.<\/p>\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a class=\"button small\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sixt.com\/car-rental\/usa\/cincinnati\/\">Book in Cincinnati<\/a><\/p>\n<li><a href=\"#observatory\">Cincinnati Observatory<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#underground\">National Underground Railroad Freedom Center<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#vent\">The Vent Haven Museum<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#river\">Cincinnati Riverwalk<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#history\">Cincinnati History Museum<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#riverboats\">BB Riverboats<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#findlay\">Findlay Market<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#rhine\">Over-the-Rhine Neighborhood<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#cemetery\">Spring Grove Cemetery &amp; Arboretum<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#ferry\">Anderson Ferry<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#eat\">Best Places to Eat &amp; Drink in Cincinnati<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n<iframe data-src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/embed?mid=16uBN-bs7qE7Z8205FqVCXuDcfkxOF7w&amp;ehbc=2E312F\" width=\"100%\" height=\"480\" frameborder=\"0\" 0=\"height='450'&gt;&lt;\/iframe\"  src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Must-see attractions in Cincinnati<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"observatory\">1. Cincinnati Observatory<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This observatory isn\u2019t bashful about calling itself \u201cThe Birthplace of American Astronomy\u201d. The vintage brick building that houses a huge telescope has preserved its old-fashioned look even as it keeps its astronomical tools and equipment up to date. You can take a tour, see spacesuits and moon rocks, and look at the skies through a telescope both at night and during the day. Tours and events sell out, so book well in advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Address: <\/strong>3489 Observatory Place, Cincinnati, OH 45208<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Entry fees:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cincinnatiobservatory.org\/visit\" rel=\"nofollow\">More information<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hours: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cincinnatiobservatory.org\/visit\" rel=\"nofollow\">When to visit<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Time required to see the attraction: <\/strong>It depends on the tour or event you book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"underground\">2. National Underground Railroad Freedom Center<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This \u201cmuseum of conscience\u201d aims to show people the reality of slavery and the courage and desperation of the Underground Railroad in American history. The center is built on the banks of the Ohio River, a significant location because it\u2019s where escaping slaves hoped to find passage to Canada. You can see artifacts, texts and pictures from slaves, and even enter a wooden slave pen where dozens of slaves were kept during auction. Visiting this museum is an unforgettable experience that conveys history in stark reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Address: <\/strong>50 E.

The Vent Haven Museum<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s something you can do in Cincinnati that you can\u2019t do anywhere else in the world? Visit a museum filled with ventriloquist dummies! The Vent Haven ventriloquist museum is just five miles south of Cincinnati, just over the border into Kentucky. The museum displays over 900 dummies as well as posters and information about the ventriloquists themselves. Don\u2019t believe it\u2019s real? Just book a tour and you\u2019ll experience it first-hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Address: <\/strong>33 W.

If you don\u2019t do the entire walk, make sure you cross the river because the views of the Cincinnati skyline from the bridge are spectacular, even to locals. The walkway also goes past Smale Riverfront Park, where gently swaying glider-like swings face the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Address: <\/strong>West Mehring Way, Cincinnati, OH 45202<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"history\">5. Cincinnati History Museum<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the best things about this museum is the majestic building itself. The Cincinnati History Museum is built in a huge, abandoned railroad terminal, and the scope and design of the architecture are truly impressive. Inside the museum, you will learn all about Cincinnati&#8217;s history and its place in the development of the American Midwest. Friendly staff answer your questions as you view the exhibits, which include a 1\/64 model replica of the city and informative films. The most popular exhibit is The Queen of the West, an actual-sized model of an old-fashioned steamboat that visitors can get in and explore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Address: <\/strong>1301 Western Ave., Cincinnati, OH 45203<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Entry fees:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cincymuseum.org\/tickets\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">More information<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hours: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cincymuseum.org\/visit-updates\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">When to visit<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Time required to see the attraction: <\/strong>1-3 hours<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"riverboats\">6.
