University Circle
One of the densest concentrations of cultural institutions in the US, with the art museum, natural history museum, botanical garden, Severance Hall, Case Western Reserve University and more.
University Circle lies about 6 km east of downtown. Within its 1.5 square kilometres are the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, the Cleveland Botanical Garden, Severance Hall, the Western Reserve Historical Society and Case Western Reserve University, along with the Cleveland Clinic.
