Columbus travel tips
Ohio Stadium in Columbus is a perfect place to have a secluded walk. It has beautiful surrounding areas, like Jesse Owens Plaza, with an abundance of trees and sculptures. If you crave something more exciting, come here to the match games to participate in the raucous before and after-game festivities.
To feel a taste of Columbus, experience its Coffee Trail. You can start in that one which is downtown, like Brioso Coffee. Pick up a Columbus Coffee Trail card there (or in any participating cafe) and get your card stamped along the way. Explore Bottoms Up Coffee, Coffee Connections of Hilliard, Third Way Café and many many others. After four stops, you earn a free Columbus coffee experience T-shirt. After completing the trail, you'll receive a free travel mug.
Walking around downtown Columbus, one can not miss the Ohio Statehouse. It is a great, beautiful building that took over twenty years to build and was fully completed in 1861. It still has been used for its intended purpose as a government residence. It is not always open, but even just admiring its exterior will be enough.
