It&#8217;s all covered in colorful drawings inside, but once you&#8217;re in, it gets dark. They call it the Gates of Hell or the Blood Bowl. It&#8217;s a tunnel under North High Street. You must walk through a giant graffiti monster&#8217;s mouth to get in. Then it&#8217;s just dark and damp all around.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Exploration_at_Chadwick_Arboretum\"><\/span><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Exploration at Chadwick Arboretum<\/span><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Chadwick Arboretum &amp; Learning Gardens is a big, green reserve in the city.

But this sculpture garden breaks that idea. It&#8217;s full of big numbers and secret math stuff, showing that math and art can be friends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The Garden of Constants at Ohio State University is a fun find. Big, colorful numbers make the area outside the engineering building look playful. They&#8217;ve been there since 1994, making the boring numbers look interesting and giving locals and visitors one of the most intriguing <\/span><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Columbus, Ohio, activities.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Visit_Statehouse_Fossils\"><\/span><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Visit Statehouse Fossils<\/span><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">If you have a paleontologist under you, you should take it to the Ohio&#8217;s Statehouse. Inside Ohio&#8217;s Statehouse, you&#8217;ll find more than you could think there&#8217;s. From the state&#8217;s legislative power to items from Ohio&#8217;s history, Ohio&#8217;s Statehouse is brimming with the heritage of Ohio&#8217;s History.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The walls are built from Columbus Limestone. This rock formed over 390 million years ago when Ohio was primarily underwater. This rock contains ancient sea creatures like corals, sponges, and shells. You will be able to see their fossils if you observe closely.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The floors are set with tiles of Crown Point Limestone. It comes from a place called Isle La Motte in Vermont. This rock has sediments older than 390\u2013405 million years from when dinosaurs started to evolve. The limestone has fossil deposits of fascinating creatures, like marine snails and other sea animals.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Find_Joy_at_Thomas_Candy_Factory\"><\/span><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Find Joy at Thomas Candy Factory<\/span><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">A true sweet tooth will never be able to say no to a candy tour. You can visit the Anthony Thomas Candy Factory for one of the most interesting <\/span><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">activities in Columbus, Ohio,<\/span><\/b><span data-contrast=\"none\"> which lasts about an hour.
