If the USA could have a "greatest hits" for a single state, Ohio might be it. All our favorite things about the USA - idyllic scenery, hearty cuisine, professional sports, even rock n' roll, has the Hall of Fame home here. This Midwestern state borders Lake Erie to the north and the Ohio River to the south, with diverse people, places and experiences in between. With three major urban centers - Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati, Ohio offer arts, culture, music, cuisine and spirits, but authentic experiences abound across the state. For thrill seeker and adventurous families, there are top-notch theme parks, aquariums, and zoos. Outdoor enthusiasts can hike, bike, paddle and camp amid thick forests and sandstone cliffs or on the shores of Lake Erie. Sports lovers have their choice of professional baseball, football, soccer, hockey and basketball. Ohio is a foodies delight, with notable chefs and hundreds of wineries and breweries to "taste".
