Just south of downtown Columbus hides this gem. German Village gives visitors a sense of the "good old days" when the city was just getting started. Walking the streets, you'll see small homes painstakingly restored with beautiful gardens. Restaurants, bars and small shops are located on street corners. Simply charming! Of course, the hot spot in German Village is Schmidt's,...

Turn of the century area that has been almost totally renovated while preserving the original housing and the feel of a unique neighborhood. There are lots of restaurants, delis and small shops to satisfy all kinds of tastes. Be sure to visit Schiller Park, and if you're a "dog person," you'll make lots of new friends (and the people are...

All the houses and businesses are in quaint, 19th century buildings. Traffic rumbles down brick streets, adding to the ambience. The big problem as a visitor is parking on street. The signs that are posted are pretty cryptic, so even though you think that you've deciphered the codes and are safe to park, expect a ticket. Nasty.
