Huntington sits on the mid-section of the scenic Ohio River at the point where West Virginia, Ohio and Kentucky meet. Founder Collis P. Huntington was the builder and owner of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway. West Virginia’s second-largest city and the home of Marshall University, Huntington promises a variety of attractions: a downtown area with shopping, entertainment and a town square with a nostalgic nod to the city's railroad past. Year-round, festivals and special events take place downtown and in Pullman Square, the Civic Arena and the Keith-Albee Theater.

Always love to stop by Ritter Park when I get the chance to be in Huntington, The perfect park to relax, or to get a great walk in. Family friendly with a play area for the kids.

What a pleasant surprise when we visited Huntington to find this shop that offers WV crafted gifts. Purchased way more than I should have but it all supports the local craft artists. If you are looking for a shop with true WV gifts then put this on your list.

Although I have visited Pullman Square multiple times, this was the first time I had ever visited the pottery place. It was such a nice relaxing afternoon of painting. The piece I created was a clover for St Patrick’s Day and my friend picked out an Easter decoration. It was the week prior to everything being shut down in the state due to coronavirus, but I finally received my finished product in May. After your project is painted, the store will fire it and mail it to you for a shipping charge. It was well worth the price. I will visit again when I am in the area.

Great place to spend some time watching the sun sink into the river through the structure of the 6th Street bridge and watch the boats out on one of America's great rivers. Not crowded on a Saturday evening, but small groups of walkers were present. Find a bench and take in a little tranquility.
