The city of Columbus is the largest city in Ohio as well as the state's capital. The city is located in the center of Ohio near the intersection of the Scioto and Olentangy rivers, as well as many other small tributaries. The city also has a very flat topography because of a large glacier which covered the land where Colubus exists during the Ice Age. According to the United States Census, Columbus is one of the United States' fastest growing cities in both geography and population. Columbus has a humid continental climate, which much like most of the midwest involves humid summers, and cool, dry winters. Columbus also offers a few attractions for visitors and tourists. The capital building and statehouse as well as several museums and colleges make the city a nice place to visit.
