Don’t forget Cedar Point in Sandusky! Wade Oval Wednesdays free concerts! The Cleveland Museum of Art! Severance Hall summer concert series!

[@dominicbruno3109]

Cedar Point isnt anywhere near Cleveland. Lol

[@timcrawford7306]

Anyone else work at Cedar Point? I had some friends that did and they lived in those horrible apartments on the grounds. I swear they had roaches and bed bugs the size of a cat lol

#1 Cleveland Art Museum and a bite to eat at Prestis Bakery in Little Italy! #2 West Side Market, dinner at Townhall and dessert at Mitchell's Icecream ftw! Honorable mention - Coventry

Those are fantastic spots! I plan to feature the art museum and West Side Market in a future video! Thank you. - John

[@geckolord0337]

Holy crap. I live in Cleveland and I didnt know about quite a few of these. Now I have some places I want to see

[@my_post_traumatic_growth]

How did visiting these work out? Would you recommend?

[@geckolord0337]

@@my_post_traumatic_growth not sure why KZbin notified me about a 2 year old comment but a few of these I can comment on for sure. Kayaking the cuyahoga river is pretty awesome, some great stuff to see. The zoo is fantastic too and I’ve been there more times than I can count. Edge water beach is meh. Not the worst by any stretch of the imagination but still just Lake Erie. Rode my mountain bike at cuyahoga national park and it’s my favorite trail system, not sure about their other stuff. Not just the Cleveland orchestra at blossom but really anyone, blossom is a real unique venue regardless of who you see. The harbor is also pretty awesome, I’ve been to the science center there and on the old freighter ship plenty times and it’s always neat but mostly when I was younger. The botanical gardens aren’t really my forte but if you like that stuff then it’s for sure worth a look. Never been to the rock n roll hall of fame but considering it’s the most visited, probably worth a trip. That’s all I really have first hand knowledge on but if you come here and look for smaller festivals or events, or really even drive around enough then there’s so much more. Side additions would be visiting our aquarium because the aquarium, it’s truly unique the way it’s built inside and really incredible. There’s also the west side market and the Asian market which are both cool places to go to. Best way to find more is to just be here and look around for more

[@deborahparker3273]

Born and raised in Cleveland. Have been to some of these places, but many I have not. Always hearing the negative about Cleveland, nice to see a such a positive spin on the metropolitan Cleveland area.

[@DJWOLFLIVE]

Deborah Parker I was also born and raised here as well. Up here to bury my dad this week but at some point I plan on partaking some of those offerings after this trying week for my family here.

[@ahhwe-any7434]

Not from Cleveland but from Lima instead. From FL & NC as well. So I have a tendency to confuse things :/... That river, it does tours too right? On the ship cruise things? Like, that the golden girls, is that filmed out there? Or is that FL? 🤔🤷🏻‍♀️ Kids in Cleveland w/ butterflies: they love me! 🤗 Reality: no, they were born in a butterfly factory & they're used to humans Bratty kid: would ppl get mad if I tore the wings off?

[@TheWonderpup6]

@@frankcastle546 as far as the actual tanks go, I've been very impressed with the Cleveland aquarium. The stocking is pretty healthy and all the work that has gone into crafting the backgrounds/decor is obvious. Sure the carpet is kinda gross but it's an aquarium. Also the shark tunnels are so cool.

[@TheWonderpup6]

@@frankcastle546 I didn't say anything about the lights? I was specifically talking about their saltwater set ups (like the lion fish tanks) and the amazon river basin tanks.... and I've been there? With other people? And talked to other people who have gone? It's not a bad aquarium. Maybe not the best but definitely not a horrible one. Like I said the stocking is pretty decent (none of the tanks were crowded from what I remember). I could do with less round tanks in their exhibits but that's about it.

Over my many years here in Cleveland, I have been lucky enough to take advantage of most of these attractions you should really show a little more love to all of the sports teams, the West side market, Little Italy, bees and drivability of our city compared to other major markets, high school sports, neighborhood barber shops, slyman's restaurant, polish boys and pierogies! 😋.

[@dalehemphill7175]

Oh yeah, I failed to mention two of the best hospital systems in the world! the ridiculous amount of home you can buy for $200,000 in this area as compared to anywhere else around the country! A limited amount of natural disasters, comparatively speaking with other major cities! Less than 1 hours drive from the world's greatest amusement park, Cedar Point! Less than a one tank trip to NYC, Toronto Canada, Niagara falls, OSU, Cincy, Motown, Indy, Pittsburgh! Truly, the best of all worlds right here in Cleveland!

Wow, I'm from Cleveland, and I use to live on Lexington back in the late 1950s right up the Street from League Park on Birmingham Court. I would also watch the Browns work out some time. Just in case you didn't know, I attended the same school Bob Hope attended. Of coarse at different times. When Bob Hope went there it was a reform school way before my time. The schools name was Thomas A. Edison on 71st & Hough. I graduated in June 1971. At the time it was a trade school with everything to offer but Auto Maintenance. I think it was a very good school. A tough school, but a good one. Nice video. By the way I'm 69 years old, and I'm really glad to see the direction the town is headed. You're making it easier to come back home. Right now I'm living in Phoenix, Az.
