No. 4: Cleveland, Ohio

Cleveland might not be the first city that comes to mind when you think of Christmas, but if the phrases "You'll shoot your eye out" and "triple dog dare" make you yearn for the holidays, it might be the place for you.

The 1983 Christmas movie classic "A Christmas Story" was filmed in Cleveland and the home to Ralphie Parker and his family has been lovingly restored to how it looks in the movie.

Together with a building across the street, the house forms A Christmas Story House and Museum. Visitors to the museum can see original props, costumes and memorabilia from the film, as well as hundreds of rare behind-the-scenes photos.

The Hyatt Regency in downtown Cleveland and the Red Roof Inn in nearby Westlake, Ohio, both offer "Christmas Story" packages that include admission to the museum and more.
