Corvette Museum/NCM Motorsports Park
The Corvette Museum has been main stay of Bowling Green for many years. Since 1981 every Corvette in the world has been built in Bowling Green at the General Motors Assembly Plant. One thing I just found out recently that I think is pretty cool is that they actually hire a professional photographer to take photos of every phase of the assembly process where when you buy it you have a scrapbook for it. But the Museum has been around since 1994 and pretty great for any car enthusiast. They show you corvettes from every era. They have alot of hands on activities for kids, plenty of shops and even have a 50s themes cafe. But another thing right outside of the actual museum is their racetrack. Which is a 3 mile track and they allow you to get behind the wheel of a Corvette for a test drive!

But that's not all, Lost River also has over a couple of miles of nature trails butterfly habitat and is one of the largest nature parks in the area.
Chaneys Dairy Farm. Fantastic farmland, kids playground, and the best ice cream I've ever had! I've taken the tour with my kids field trips a couple of times and it is fantastic!
