俄亥俄州
俄亥俄州的绰號是“一切的中心”，據稱是因為它的形狀（有點像心形）、它在中美中西部的中心地理位置、它融合了大型商業城市、小城鎮、工業和農田的特色，以及它在“美国心脏地带”中的關鍵作用。
由於古代冰川的作用，西北部的地貌普遍平坦，而向東和東南部靠近阿勒格尼山脈和阿巴拉契亞山脈的地區則逐漸變得多山。除了擁有一個大湖（伊利湖）和一條主要的可通航河流（俄亥俄河）外，俄亥俄州還設有一個國家公園（卡亞霍加谷國家公園）、一個國家森林（韦恩国家森林）、一些國家野生動物保護區，以及分布在伊利湖上的一系列島嶼。
地区
[]俄亥俄州共有 88 個縣，大致可分為以下幾個地區：
| 西北俄亥俄州 (NWO) 平坦的農業土地點綴著城市和郊區，圍繞著托萊多，並向西延伸至印第安納州，向北延伸至密歇根州。 |
| 俄亥俄州伊利湖岸线西部 包含 Firelands 社區，以及伊利湖沿岸的眾多度假勝地。 |
| 東北俄亥俄州 (NEO)（包括大克利夫蘭地區、伍斯特地區、坎頓-馬西隆都會區、阿克倫都會區、揚斯敦-沃倫都會區） 阿勒格尼山脈起伏的林地山麓，在靠近伊利湖時逐漸變平（東北俄亥俄州的定義包括 13 個縣和 450 萬人口）。 |
| 俄亥俄州西部 平坦的農業土地點綴著小城市 |
| 大哥伦布地区 俄亥俄州的首府哥倫布市及其周邊都會區。 |
| 俄亥俄河-塞科托河流域 包括代頓市和西南俄亥俄州的農村社區 |
| 大辛辛那提地区 位於俄亥俄州的辛辛那提市及其周邊都會區的一部分。 |
| 俄亥俄州东南部 非常崎嶇的煤礦區，位於阿巴拉契亞山脈的山麓，延伸至賓夕法尼亞州和西弗吉尼亞州，包括韋恩國家森林。 |

“OH-IO!”
 “七葉樹之州”這個稱號在 1840 年的“圓木小屋和蘋果酒”總統競選期間聲名鵲起，當時人們用七葉樹木材製作家具、小屋和蘋果酒桶，以紀念成為第一位美國總統的俄亥俄州人威廉·亨利·哈里森。在與馬丁·范布倫的選舉中，輝格黨競選歌曲中提到了七葉樹。一種毒性小且美味的糖果，模仿七葉樹的樣子，由花生醬中心部分覆蓋巧克力製成。外觀非常相似，糖果也很美味。 |
Ohio is the 35th largest state by size, but 7th by population (11,459,011 residents in 2004 according to the US Census Bureau). The state has natural boundaries to the north (Lake Erie) and to the south (Ohio River) and is bordered by the states of Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Ohio also shares Lake Erie as a border with the Canadian province of Ontario.
俄亥俄州一直以來並將繼續在美利坚合众国的歷史和政府發展中發揮關鍵作用。俄亥俄州對歷史的一大貢獻是地下鐵路網絡，該網絡幫助逃亡的奴隸遷往自由的北方州和加拿大。許多俄亥俄州人，尤其是哈里特·伊麗莎白·比徹·斯托和約翰·布朗，積極反對奴隸制。俄亥俄州位於“心臟地帶”，這可以指中西部農業部門和五大湖工業基地。
Ohio has also been home to eight American presidents, giving it the nickname Mother of US Presidents. American Presidents from Ohio were Ulysses Grant (18th, born in Point Pleasant), Rutherford Hayes (19th, Delaware), James Garfield (20th, Orange), Benjamin Harrison (23rd, North Bend), William McKinley (25th, Niles), William Taft (27th, Cincinnati), and Warren Harding (29th, Corsica/Blooming Grove). In addition, William Henry Harrison (9th), was born in Virginia but settled (and is buried) in North Bend. Ohio is considered one of the most important states in presidential elections due to its 20 electoral votes and is often one of the few states that can go to either party. Unlike California, Illinois, New York that lean Democratic and Texas which almost always votes Republican, Ohio's voting tendencies changes from election to election. As a matter of fact between 1856 (the first time a Republican ran for president) until the 2020 election, no Republican won the presidency without also winning Ohio. (Donald Trump won Ohio in 2020, but lost the election to Joe Biden.) Given the somewhat forgettable record of some of the Ohio presidents however, there is a somewhat irreverent saying about presidents: "Some are born great, some achieve greatness and some were just born in Ohio".
The Wright Brothers, Orville and Wilbur, inventors of the airplane, were from Dayton in Ohio, giving the state one reason to call itself the Birthplace of Aviation (though the brothers actually flew the airplane first in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, Dayton was their home and the place where they conducted their research, development, and fabrication activities, as well as test-flights of various glider prototypes). Ohio, however, has additional claims to the nickname. Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk the moon, was an Ohioan, as was late U.S. Senator and astronaut John Glenn, who was the first American to complete an orbit of the Earth from outer space. Ohio has also been home to 23 other astronauts and is home to the Wright Patterson Air Force Base near Dayton, the NASA John H. Glenn Research Center in Cleveland, and National Museum of the United States Air Force in Dayton.

[]與你可能聽說的不同，俄亥俄州實際上擁有非常多樣的地區方言。在該州中部，特別是代頓和哥倫布地區，許多人說的是通常被稱為通用美式英語或標準中西部方言。克利夫蘭和托萊多地區的人們說話帶有被稱為北部城市元音偏移的同一方言，聽起來非常像芝加哥人（想像一下《週六夜現場》中的“Da Bears”這是一個非常誇張的例子）。
在克利夫蘭和哥倫布之間的阿米什鄉村，英語實際上是阿米什人口的第二語言，他們的第一語言是賓夕法尼亞德語。賓夕法尼亞德語與德語有關。基本上所有阿米什人都會在家庭之外說英語，但帶有獨特的口音。
在辛辛那提、克利夫蘭和哥倫布的市中心，有數十萬非裔美國人說著被稱為非裔美國人白話英語，或 Ebonics。當你向南和東南部移動時，你可能會遇到說南方美式英語的人——尤其是在大辛辛那提都會區。大辛辛那提地區的白人非阿巴拉契亞人口由於大量德國人口的影響，口音略有差異，並帶有一些當地俗語，例如將便利店稱為“Pony Keg”，以及在要求對方重複時使用“Please?”而不是“What?”。

行程
[]- The Lincoln Highway. If you are a visitor to United States or Ohio, an alternative to the well developed interstate highway system, is the Lincoln Highway which is an east/west transcontinental highway conceived in 1913 specifically for automobile traffic. It is not a speedy road to follow as it passes through, rather than around the cities and villages on its path from coast to coast. In Ohio it was (not now, in a lot of cases) known as US Route 30, although US Route 30 remains, much of it has been moved from the original Lincoln Highway, to a newer four lane highway also known as US Route 30. In Ohio the Lincoln Highway runs from East Liverpool, Ohio, west to Fort Wayne, Indiana, through the center of Ohio, and through many of its more scenic areas and communities. You will have no problem finding and enjoying food and lodging, that will be extremely different and likely less expensive than the "cookie cutter" offerings along the Interstate highways.

俄亥俄州不僅有美味的餐飲場所和食物，還有一些定義了美國美食的菜餚誕生於俄亥俄州。
西北
托萊多都會區是西北俄亥俄州主要的餐飲中心。特別是，匈牙利移民帶來了一些他們的烹飪特色，最典型的代表是 Front St. 的 Tony Packo's Cafe。
西北俄亥俄州的農業社區通常以其零食聞名。俄亥俄州的芬德利以其糖果、冰淇淋和香料堅果而聞名。
东北方向
- 楓糖漿 – 前往東北俄亥俄州的吉奧加縣，伯頓村是楓糖產區的核心，但楓糖漿在該州大部分地區都有生產和銷售。
- Salisbury 牛排 – 由克利夫蘭人 James H. Salisbury 博士創造並以其命名，他希望完善肉類醃製工藝（您可以在大學環路附近的 Lakeview Cemetery 向他致敬）。門切斯兄弟認為，“這只不過是一塊裹著肉汁的精緻漢堡包。”
西南部
- 香蕉船 – 來自威爾明頓的 Ernest Hazard 是香蕉和冰淇淋甜點的其中一位據稱的發明者。
- Goetta – 是一種源於德國的農家菜，在辛辛那提都會區很受歡迎。它主要由碎肉和燕麥組成。傳統上用作早餐肉。
- Cincinnati Chili – 是一種地區性的辣椒風格，通常搭配意大利麵或作為熱狗醬。雖然在許多普通餐廳都有供應，但它最常與辛辛那提地區的幾家快餐連鎖店聯繫在一起，包括 Skyline Chili、Gold Star、Empress 和 Dixie。

- Buckeye Chicken – 一種在該地區飼養的相對稀有的雞品種，以其優質的味道而聞名。
饮品
[]俄亥俄州的酒類法規在限制方面處於中間水平。啤酒、葡萄酒和烈酒可以在許多商店找到。您可以使用俄亥俄州酒精飲料管理局的網站 OHLQ.com 搜索商店和產品。啤酒、葡萄酒和烈酒可以銷售到凌晨 1 點（一些商店沒有銷售某些或所有類型的酒精的許可證，在周日）。烈酒可以在州立酒類經銷處購買（有些設在雜貨店）。這些商店也銷售葡萄酒、啤酒、蘇打水、調酒飲料等，並且關門時間較早。
兩項規定可能會影響個人購買酒精飲料以供外出飲用。首先，必須由年滿 21 歲（法定飲酒年齡）的員工將酒售給您，這有時意味著收銀員必須去找一個有權出售的人，如果您在一家沒有其他員工的便利店，您將無濟於事。其次，即使是單獨的酒，也必須裝在袋子裡攜帶出商店，以便隱藏。
與所有其他州一樣，俄亥俄州嚴格執行其酒後駕駛法律。在汽車的乘客艙內攜帶開放的酒精飲料容器也是非法的，無論是誰在飲用。而且，任何合法攜帶槍支的人，如果在酒精影響下，預計將面臨使用武器醉酒的指控，這可能是一項重罪。
酒庄
[]俄亥俄州的第一家主要酒莊由 Nicholas Longworth 在俄亥俄州西南部俄亥俄河沿岸附近創立。由於土地肥沃，葡萄酒生產成為俄亥俄州的重要產業之一，到 1860 年代，俄亥俄州已成為美國葡萄酒產量領先者。由於農作物歉收和禁酒令，俄亥俄州的葡萄酒生產曾一度萎縮。然而，俄亥俄州生產的葡萄酒越來越受歡迎，儘管對遊客和當地人來說，大部分仍未被發現。

- Ferrante Winery, Geneva
- Laurello Vineyards. Geneva

High Bank Distillery's Whiskey War bourbon has won multiple Buckeye Vodka is an Ohio made vodka that can be found in liquor stores and some bars throughout the state. Most of the other local spirits are hard to find outside their home areas.
住宿
[]Visitors may want to consider staying at one of Ohio's resort lodges or state parks, which are spread throughout the state. Most are very pleasant to visit and offer an opportunity to visit Ohio's great outdoors. The lodges offer outstanding locations and amenities, while the parks usually offer primitive camping, camping, backpacking, group camps, horseman camps and boat camping. All are State of Ohio owned, some are operated by contractors.
保持健康
[]Smoking
[]- 另见：烟草

Alternatively, you can email a complaint to NoSmoke@odh.ohio.gov. You must include the following information for a complaint to be followed up on: the business' name, nature of the complaint, a complete address; including the street number, street name, city and zip code.
Winter weather
[]- See also: Cold weather, Winter driving
Even if you are driving through Ohio, in the winter months you want to make sure that you have enough clothes to keep you warm in the event you have difficulties. Temperatures often get below 0 °F (−18 °C). Drivers heading into Ohio from the South will want to make sure their vehicles are prepared for freezing weather. Have the antifreeze in your radiator checked, and replace the window washer solvent with a product that will not freeze. Be prepared with extra warm clothes, shoes, head cover and gloves.
注意安全
[]
总的来说，俄亥俄州是一个相当安全的州。白天大多数地方都非常安全，但仍需采取正常的防范措施，以防犯罪。游客面临的最大威胁是冬季天气和潜在的交通事故。如果您驾车出行，请在恶劣天气下注意行车安全，并随时关注各大城市周边的交通警报。
- 俄亥俄州交通部安全巡逻队. M-F 6AM-9PM. On mobile phone #677 If your car breaks down on the highway in larger cities, the safety patrol can offer minor mechanical services and fix flats. Available in Akron, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton, and Toledo as of 2019.
尊重
[]俄亥俄州人对其州“乏味、容易被遗忘的‘飞过州’”的声誉有些敏感。如果您在他们能听到的范围内称他们的州“乏味”，俄亥俄州人一定会向您列举州内最棒的景点，并详细解释为什么您错了。
俄亥俄州的人口构成非常能代表整个国家。您会遇到坚定的保守派和进步派，以及大量的西班牙裔、亚裔、中东裔和非裔社区。哥伦布有一个蓬勃发展的LGBTQ+群体。
俄亥俄州与密歇根州之间存在激烈的竞争，最著名的是俄亥俄州立大学七叶树队和密歇根大学狼獾队。在俄亥俄州（尤其是在哥伦布），穿着密歇根大学的装备，最坏的情况下只会招致嘘声或嘲讽。然而，在重大的比赛期间这样做，可能会导致骚扰或对抗。
