Sightseeing

On the national registry of historic places, over 100 acres of formal gardens, green space, walking paths, Pond House Cafe, and pond. The rose gardens and central gazebo are breathtaking. Best part, besides quintessential Central Connecticut atmosphere is that the park is free and open 365 days of the year.

Private liberal arts college, founded in 1823, second oldest only to Yale University in Connecticut. Open Campus allows for people to walk among stunning architecture. Very Harry Potter esque.
