A fun district in Columbus with a ton of restaurants, bars, galleries, and shops! Be sure to check out Jeni's Ice Cream while you're there if it's warm enough (or even if it's not).
One of our favorite places in Columbus - a 32 room bookstore, which you will love if you are a fellow bookworm! You can also stop by Stauf's Coffee or Pistacio Vera for a treat next door while you're in the area. German Village, the neighborhood where it is located, is also a beautiful, scenic area to walk around and explore.
A beautiful museum downtown which is definitely worth a visit! There are always interesting exhibits to see as well as a small sculpture garden for outside enjoyment.
A fun, hands-on science center which is a great option for those of you bringing kiddos with you to Columbus!
If you love to shop, look no further than Easton. This indoor/outdoor shopping complex has pretty much every store you can think of and more.
Columbus has some beautiful hiking trails in their Metro Park system. Highbanks is a great place to spend some time with nature and has a range of easy to difficult paths to explore! It is also conveniently located near the Nationwide hotel.
OSU has a huge campus that is fun to visit if you've never been there before. You can see where Jared spends many hours of the day as a graduate student (Derby Hall), take a stroll around the Oval where you'll find many students relaxing in between classes, or stop by the Ohio State Stadium to see where the Buckeyes play. We also recommend grabbing a donut near campus at Buckeye Donuts while you're there. Warning: there is a home game during our wedding weekend so it may be challenging to get to/from campus if you go on game day!
