Columbus Attractions

It’s not hard to find things to do in Columbus. In fact, with so many top-ranked attractions, one of the hardest parts about any trip is deciding which activity will have to wait until the next visit.

Shop at the North Market's more than 30 merchants and the Short North Arts District's galleries and boutiques. Tour the beautifully restored Ohio Statehouse and explore the shops in historic German Village. Hang out in the Heart of Africa at “Jungle” Jack Hanna’s home zoo, the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium or get hands-on at COSI, a top-rated science center featuring more than 300 interactive exhibits. Check out Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, displaying the world's largest collection of Dale Chihuly's glass artwork in a botanical garden, then hit Easton, the Midwest's premier shopping destination and home to LEGOLAND Discovery Center, billed as the ultimate indoor LEGO playground. Visit the one-of-a-kind National Veterans Memorial and Museum on downtown's Scioto Mile, or let loose a little at Hollywood Casino Columbus.
