Connecticut Facts, Emblems, Historical Firsts and Holidays
Connecticut has it all, soft, rolling hills, small mountains, beautiful countryside and urban settings replete with the latest and greatest in technology and innovation, some of which has come from within its own borders. Here, there are small businesses and huge ones, GE, Pitney Bowes and a big variety of others.
In its southwest corner are Greenwich, Stamford, Darien, New Canaan, Norwalk, Stratford and Bridgeport, all bedroom communities to New York City or New haven, Connecticut. In its southeast corner, it has Mystic Country with a living history museum, seaport and aquarium; to the north are Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun casinos, spas and resorts.
To the south is Long island Sound where you can fish, boat, water ski and swim.
To the north are farms, campsites, lakes, ponds and rivers full of trout.
And throughout there is history—history older than this nation’s. And it’s all beautifully packaged for not only the perfect New England getaway, but a fabulous Connecticut getaway.
