I've always lived in a suburb of Cleveland and wanted to know what things (events, buildings, activities, etc) attract tourists? I might give someone a tour so please help thanks!
Growing up, I never had any opportunities to go downtown.What are some things to do in Cleveland Ohio?
Apart from the Indians, Cavs, and Browns, the big attractions include:
1) The Rock %26amp; Roll Hall of Fame and Museum and the Great Lakes Science Center on the lakefront both are popular, the latter moreso with kids.
2) University Circle offers one of the nation's greatest concentration of top cultural institutions, all within a short walking distance. The Cleveland Museum of Art is one of the best in the U.S. and admission to its permanent galleries remains free. Severance Hall is one of the world's most acclaimed concert halls and is the home of the Cleveland Orchestra, one of the best in the world. Severance Hall hosts numerous popular events during the holiday season. Cleveland Botanical Garden is one of the best in the nation. The Cleveland Museum of Natural History is very good, as is the Western Reserve Historical Society. Skating on the iceless rink at the Wade Oval is a great experience.
3) Playhouse Square offers the nation's second largest theater complex after Lincoln Center in New York City. The Hanna Theatre particularly offers a top-rated performance venue.
4) The Arcade is one of the nation's architectural monuments. It's beautifully decorated for the holidays. The Soldier's and Sailor's Monument at Public Square is one of the best Civil War memorials in the Midwest.

6) The Terminal Tower was the tallest building in the U.S. outside of New York City for several decades. Its observation deck currently is open on weekends for the holiday season. Meanwhile, Progressive Field is hosting "Snow Days."

10) The U.S.S. Cod during warm months and The Christmas Story House are popular with visitors.
11) Lakeview Cemetery is a very unique attraction, especially the Wade Chapel.
12) In Kirtland, there are three top-notch attractions. The Holden Arboretum is one of the largest and best in the U.S., and beautiful in all seasons of the year. The Kirtland Temple was the first Mormon Temple, and the only one now open to the public. Lake Metroparks Farmpark has been ranked as one of the best in North America by USA Today.

Let's see. The Indians, Caveliers, and Browns play there, don't they. Only the Indians are worth going to see now that LeBron is gone. The Browns haven't been any good since Jimmy Brown retired.What are some things to do in Cleveland Ohio?
