According to famous author Charles Dickens, Cincinnati is a lovely city that is cheery, flourishing, and alive. Downtown is another illustration of this renaissance, with recent renovations to the riverside Great American Ball Park and the pedestrian-friendly Fountain Square. Some of the more pastoral regions have stayed mostly unchanged. A stroll through Spring Grove Cemetery & Arboretum, as well as Eden Park, which sprawls out alongside the Cincinnati Art Museum, will persuade you of this.
