Why I Loved Cleveland.. Mahatma Gandhi and More
My Dad asked me what is Round, High and Round again? You guessed it right,the Answer is Ohio (O high O). It was my first time visiting the State of Ohio in U.S.A and I came back with some beautifl memories.
Here’s my list of things I saw in Cleveland and would definitely recommend for future visitors.
University Circle
This is a big university famous for the Cultural gardens. It had great landscape and some gorgeous architecture. This area was full of beautiful architecture and comprised a perfect mix of traditional and modern architecture.Cleveland Museum of Natural History, Botanical Gardens, Western Reserve Historical Society,Cleveland institute of music etc. Glidden house was a warm and traditional looking hotel in this area that caught our attention. While walking in this area we were greeted by a rather warm and friendly project manager, Douglas Denny who gave us lots of information about the area.

Euclid Street Architecture
We were greeted by some gorgeous Gothic architecture on this street. Churches and other beautiful buildings on this street were breathtaking.
Playhouse Square
This was a cool square, which had a gigantic chandelier (like massive) in the middle of the square. They encouraged people to take Selfies with it and post them on social media. In the evening, we attended the live music event at the square and loved it. The city is obviously big on music and you will hear different genres as you stroll by the city.

Colossal Cupcakes
Ok so I love cupcakes and this place had some divine delicious treats to dig in. I ordered the red velvet cupcake (My all time favorite) and this was definitely one of the best cupcakes I have ever had. The girl at the store was very warm and friendly and the décor of this place is just too cute for words.

East 4th Street
East 4th Street is a buzzing street in downtown Cleveland full of restaurants, breweries and lounges. The patios decorated with colorful flora make you feel you are on some European street. We enjoyed our lunch at House of Blues and dined at a Mexican place called Zocala.
