Visiting Cleveland Ohio

Cleveland, Ohio, has been taking intensive steps to move away from its beginnings as an industrial city, and has been undergoing a transformation in recent years. A great way of seeing Cleveland is with a a bus, coach bus, party bus, mini bus, passenger coach or school bus chartered from Bus Charter Cleveland. The once polluted Cuyahoga River, for example, has been cleaned up and now sports a thriving nightclub district along the Flats and the city's spirit has also been rejuvenated with the return of the beloved Browns to Memorial Stadium, and sports fans cheering on the Cavaliers at Quicken Loans Arena and the Indians at Progressive Field.
Charter bus visitors to Cleveland will quickly notice that he central feature of Cleveland is Public Square, which in 1879 became the first public square in the United States to be lit by electricity. Around it are the Tower City Center, a shopping center converted from an old railroad station, with the 52-storey Terminal Tower, featuring a viewing platform on 42nd floor, and the 46-storey BP America Building. North-east of Public Square is the Mall, the largest square in the city center, which is decorated with fountains and sculpture and dominated by the Society Center, Cleveland's tallest building at 890 feet. The Public Square in Cleveland is right in the heart of the city at the intersection of Superior and Ontario streets, and easily accessible by charter bus. 
Charter bus visitors might be interested in touring the USS Cod Submarine Memorial, a World War II fleet sub docked on Lake Erie in downtown Cleveland. Listed as as National Historic Landmark, the USS COD is a World War II submarine with an interesting history of battles and rescues. The submarine was responsible for the first submarine-to-submarine rescue, which occurred in 1945. She was commissioned on June 21, 1943 and was on patrol during the war, then decommissioned in 1954. The USS Cod has not been modified from her original wartime configuration, and entrance is through the original hatchways and ladders in the submarine.
Charter bus visitors who love animals should head to the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo, a short charter bus ride away on Cleveland's west side near the neighborhood of Old Brooklyn. Here you can explore the Zoo's RainForest, home to a 25 foot waterfall as well as plants and animals from the jungles of Africa, Asia and the Americas. Next, take a walk through the park or hop on a Zoo Tram and visit the African Savannah, where you can experience the Safari Ride motion simulator or just say hello to the lions, zebras, giraffes, zebras, rhinos and birds. Keep exploring the zoo and you'll also find everything from polar bears to kangaroos, not to mention one of North America's largest collections of primate species.
