There's plenty of fun to be had in Cincinnati but if you're a fan of the old adage, "the grass is greener on the other side" then consider taking a trip over the Ohio River and exploring the attractions at Newport on the Levee. This exciting destination offers something for everyone whether you're looking for retail therapy, a great place to have dinner and drinks, family fun or a night on the town. We recommend you check out the underwater attractions at the Newport Aquarium, knock down some pins at Star Lanes on the Levee Bowling, or walk on water at Hamsters Water Balls.
Lace up your bowling shoes and get ready to knock down some pins at Madison Bowl, a 24/7 bowling alley in the Oakley neighborhood. This old-school alley has great deals for all bowlers and great hours for all ages, as well as an excellent dinner inside (and a full bar for those over 21).
Constructed in an old passenger railroad station, the Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal now houses three museums, an OMNIMAX theater and a library in its massive facility. Learn about the history of the city at the Cincinnati History Museum; explore the entire world at the Museum of Natural History and Science; or let the little ones have a blast at the Duke Energy Children's Museum.
Learn how to cast a reel at Folz Fishing Lakes. These catch and release lakes are stuffed with all kinds of enormous fish: carps, bluecats, shovelheads, bass, bluegill and more. Rent a fishing pole and some live bait to take out onto the two beautifully maintained, tree-lined lakes for a great way to unwind.
