Ohio is a state that has a lot to offer. Most people come to Ohio to explore the untouched nature, the lakes, and the abundant wildlife. The Serpent Mounds are one of the state’s most famous attractions. These earthworks were created by people who inhabited the area of Ohio over 20,000 years ago. Experts say they built the mounds to keep track of the sun’s movement. Lake Erie and the Ohio River give the state the perfect climate for a lot of species to thrive. That’s why so many visitors come to Ohio to enjoy the fascinating natural wonders of the region.
On top of that, the climate is ideal for wine making and countless vintners grow a wide variety of different grapes in Ohio.
