Nosh award-winning food in historic buildings, tip back some craft beers amid a Lake Erie beach party or cheer on a championship team with a hardball of locally distilled spirits. All in Cleveland.

Visiting a graveyard may not be the first thing on your "to-do list" when visiting any city but many Americans today have forgotten that Cleveland was at one time one of the largest and most prominent cities in the United States with a rich (literal and figurative) history. The gravestones of American figures including John D. Rockefeller, President James A. Garfield, James Barnett, Eliot Ness, Garrett Morgan (founder of the tri-color. traffic light and gas mask), Henry A. Sherwin (founder of the Sherwin-Williams company), and others can be found here on the grounds. Statues and inscriptions of weeping widows, mighty archangels, life-sized ship anchors, broken columns and other mysterious masonic symbols can be found throughout the maze of ground and stone. A staunch yet gentle reminder of our own history and mortality. Visit before the sun sets.

Quicken Loans Arena

Reviewed By RogerK314

The staff here is terrific. From entering the Arena to navigating your way around to the service people. Everyone is polite, delightful and ready to help. I was very impressed with the staff here. We had a suite for the TSO show. Eighteen people. There were a few snafus, but we dealt with it and they made good when I brought it to the attention of the Suite manager. Everything is new and totally remodeled. Very clean and spacious. Cleveland should be very proud of this First Class Arena. Surely one of the best in the Country.
