Nestled in the <strong>Oak Ridge Cemetery<\/strong>, surrounded by memorials and landscaped ponds.

Rubbing the nose of the bronze bust of Lincoln at the entrance is supposed to be good luck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Along those same lines, there is also the <strong>Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library &amp; Museum<\/strong>, where immersive exhibits and artifacts bring his story to life; you can also walk through the <strong>Lincoln Home National Historic Site<\/strong>, the only home he ever owned, preserved with guided tours of the neighborhood; and then stand inside the <strong>Old State Capitol Historic Site<\/strong>, beautifully restored to the place where Lincoln delivered his famous \u201cHouse Divided\u201d speech.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you need a little exercise, just north of the airport is the 9-hole <strong>Long Bridge Golf Course<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Architecture gets a nod in Springfield, as it is home to the <strong>Dana-Thomas House<\/strong>. This is one of the most complete <strong>Frank Lloyd Wright<\/strong> homes in the country. There are over 100 pieces of original Wright furniture here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-why-fly-here\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Fly Here?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Abraham Lincoln Capital Airport<\/strong> serves as a welcoming gateway to central Illinois.
