2 days in Columbus Itinerary

More than just one of the nation's top business centers, Columbus is a mixture of many different parts of America, situated at the spot where the so-called "Bible Belt" meets the varied cultures of the Great Plains and Appalachia.

Start off your visit on the 6th (Sun): observe the fascinating underwater world at Columbus Zoo and Aquarium, then wander the streets of Easton Town Center, and then kick your exploration up a notch at some of the top local zipline courses and adventure parks. Here are some ideas for day two: admire the striking features of Ohio Statehouse, then appreciate the extensive heritage of German Village, then take in nature's colorful creations at Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, and finally test your problem-solving skills at popular escape rooms.
