10 Shopping in Bowling Green That You Shouldn't Miss

October 15, 2021 Leonardo Torrence

Known primarily as the only place in the U.S. that manufactures Corvettes and for the large ancient cavern that sits in the center of the city, Bowling Green has built a thriving tourist business on cars and caves. At the General Motors Corvette Assembly Plant, visitors can see the step-by-step production of America's favorite sports car. The Corvette Museum includes one-of-a-kind prototypes, that were designed but never manufactured, among other Corvette memorabilia. To view awesome creations made by nature head to the Lost River Valley and Cave. Take the underground boat tour, on the shortest deep river in the world, to see a land formation that is more than 10,000 years old and has been used as shelter by Native Americans and Civil War soldiers. Though Bowling Green never officially left the Union, it's home to a number of historic war landmarks, exquisite old homes and remarkable buildings that can be visited on foot or by car during a leisurely drive through this beautiful part of the country.

We had a great time. Our grandson loved the playground and wagon ride around the property. Picked our own apples. Recommend the fried pies and apple slushies.

Found The Baker Arboretum and Downing Museum on Trip Advisor. So glad I did. This is a wonderful place to spend an afternoon. The art work of Joe Downing was amazing as was the story of his life. Strolling the grounds is so peaceful and inviting. What a great escape that seems to be hidden from those of us just outside of Bowling Green.

This is a very nice and clean mall. Lots of nice shops and vendors that serve a lot of deliciousness. I especially recommend Suki Hana and their bourbon chicken, big portions and amazingly good food. It's also fun for kids, there's stuffed animals for the kids to ride. And...a carousel!! ????
