"A Quaint Tourist Destination"

Trenton Tourism

Trenton, despite being one the first few cities to achieve independence, still retains some of the Colonial charms that make the place so unique in its attractions. The city is dotted with several historic sites that chronicle the tales from the war times. Trenton is most popular among the history buffs and tourists looking to explore the old town vibes to its core. The City Parks also attract both locals and foreigners who come seeking out adventure in the quaint town.

The 100 acres of Cadwalader Park is the largest and oldest city park that is home to beautiful landscapes and nature trails. Tourists flock to Cadwalader to seek resort among the green foliage covered trails and the adjacent canal pathway. On the outskirts of Trenton is another recreational area, The John A. Roebling Park which provides for fishing, kayaking, and hiking trails that is a popular attraction among tourists and locals alike. Other popular city parks include Trenton Recreation Department, Mill Hill Park, Franklin Park, and Hetzel park.

Trenton boasts a rich cultural as well as artistic heritage that is most sought out among the tourists. New Jersey Statehouse and William Trent House Museum are two most prominent historic buildings of the state which are also appreciated for their architectural excellence. While the Old Barracks Museum is famous for its collection of colonial artifacts, the New Jersey State Museum is popular among tourists for its fascinating collection of archaeological remains and ethnographic artifacts. Trenton celebrates its artists by showcasing varied art forms in the Artworks visual art centre, Passage Theatre Company, and the Grounds for Sculpture. 

The unconventional old town vibe of the city seems to enchant tourists who visit Trenton. The city’s quaint charms are reflected in the art and culture that envelopes the place and even seems to add to its appeal.
