Considered the birthplace of the United States, New England is composed of six historic states: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. It is nearly a one-stop shop for everything you are looking for in a vacation since it offers pristine beaches, cultural attractions, historic landmarks, and vibrant art and culinary scenes. Cape Cod, for example, is an excellent holiday destination during summer. When you are in the area, it’s worth giving celebrated and local food a try, such as Boston’s baked beans, Maine’s lobsters, and Vermont’s syrup.
