Today, Peninsula is a well-preserved mid-19th-century town with historic Greek Revival style architecture and interesting shops full of art and collectibles. Bikers and hikers flock to Peninsula restaurants, as the Ohio and Erie Towpath Trail (where donkeys once pulled canal boats along the Cuyahoga River) runs just west of downtown. Blossom Music Center, the summer home of the world-renowned Cleveland Orchestra, is located on the town’s outskirts and provides another source of tourism for this quaint village.
