Cincinnati has 19th-century and Art Deco architecture, historic breweries and European-style neighborhoods.

Holtman’s Donuts has taken the city by storm, topping its donuts with maple bacon, cereal or coconut. The Cincinnati Contemporary Arts Center is the first freestanding American museum designed by a woman (none other than Zaha Hadid), and it’s full of cutting-edge photography, film and performance art; and downtown’s 21c Museum Hotel features a free contemporary art gallery, rooftop bar and restaurant.
