This is the nation`s oldest civic garden, dating back to 1930.Its 7.5 acres are divided into herb, wildflower, rose, perennial and Japanese gardens.
A visit to the Great Lakes Science Center in Cleveland is an educational experience. The center offers over 340 interactive displays that will delight and surprise visitors of all ages. Also on site is a six-story OMNIMAX theater where interesting features are shown.
It is more an experience than a museum.The history of popular music is spread over six floors in an atmosphere of multimedia exuberance,with such rarities as the manuscript of "Purple Haze" written by Jimi Hendrix or "The Psychedilic Porsche", as sung by Janis Joplin. The CD shop can meet every need.It is here that the Rock n Roll music industry honors its finest entertainers.
The Terminal Tower, now dwarfed by a newer building, is still the most recognizable image on the downtown Cleveland skyline. Sitting on the south end of downtown in the center of Public Square, it is still a popular meeting spot that houses one of the area`s biggest department stores, a mall, food court, multiple movie theaters, and, of course, the train station. The 52-story building was constructed in 1930, at the time when skyscrapers were in their infancy. The 42nd floor observation deck offers clear views of most of the Cleveland area.
