Lexington Airport Guide
Lexington is a very cultured city and a romantic one at that. You can see the sights of the city by horse drawn carriage, especially pretty on snowy winter nights or enjoy a show of movie at the renowned Kentucky Theatre. The city’s main park; The Triangle, is beautifully laid out and has illuminated fountains which surround the crest of the ridge around which it’s built. For a bit of history, you have two main choices; the Henry Clay House, home of the famous US Senator and also the home of Mary Todd Lincoln, America’s first memorial to a first lady.
