This particular view from the west side of town is special for the inclusion of the "CINCINNATI" sign, as well as the sweeping view of all of downtown. Of course, to view the skyline from Kentucky is equally as memorable.
Natural beauty can be found in Cincinnati's many parks and green spaces.

Cincinnati's Union Terminal may be under construction for restoration right now, but it will surely be back to its crown jewel status in no time. The view of downtown from this spot isn't bad, either.
Even our stadiums are beautiful! Many argue that Great American Ballpark is the most beautiful stadium in the Major Leagues.

Findlay Market in OTR is a popular gathering place. The area is a delightful spot to experience how beautiful an urban area can be.
