15 Best Things To Do in Columbus, Georgia

Back in the day, Columbus was known for being the industrial center in the region, but today it’s more of an entertainment spot, which has a vibrant appeal for tourists of all ages. From enjoying a concert to sitting through a Broadway performance, there’s a lot to do in their Georgia city.

The Columbus Museum, which by the way, is the second-largest in the southeast region, houses historical artworks narrating the story of Columbus. Another thing that attracts people to Columbus is the Coca-Cola Space Science Center, where you can enjoy a cruise of the solar system and live the life of an astronaut for a day.

While you’re in the city, fuel your patriotism by visiting the National Civil War Naval Museum, which has models of many naval ships, including the USS Water Witch.
