Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Culture and heritage
National Corvette Museum
This museum of Bowling Green explores the full story of an American icon, from its first variations to contemporary versions. The approach presents a scene of design, mechanics and automotive culture, with objects capable of evokeing as much industrial production as a living popular memory.
Nature and landscape
Lost River Cave
Lost River Cave It is the route of an underground river and a network of long galleries. Descending to the large natural entrance hall and observing the bridges gives a rare sensation of inner depth, where the water disappears and then reappears according to the topography.
Culture and heritage
Historic RailPark and Train Museum
The RailPark reinvested a train station in 1925 into a railway memory space, with restored cars and service objects of several periods. Riding in the cars allows to compare usages and comfort yesterday, then to understand the transformation of travel and regional transport.
