Disclosure: Choose Newton sponsored this post. However, all opinions and photographs are my own.

Newton tops the list when people ask me about my favorite Kansas. It’s less than a 30-minute drive from Wichita and offers a long list of entertaining attractions, dining options, and locally-owned shops that make for an overnight stay.

Founded in 1871, Newton started as a Atchison, Topeka , and Santa Fe Railroad town as well as a stop for Texas cattlemen driving herds along the Chisholm Trail. Over 18,000 residents call the modern-day town home, a place offering visitors plenty to do and see.

COMFY LODGING ACCOMMODATIONS

I prefer to stay at a charming vacation rental, so I was pleased High Street Hideaway was available. The two bedroom, one bathroom home is located in a residential neighborhood in close proximity to downtown Newton by car.

Built in the 1900, the bungalow home’s interior design mimicked the home’s historic character. During the evening, I streamed a movie from the living-room’s television Roku streaming service and kicked back and enjoyed the free high-speed WiFi.

The primary bedroom includes a queen bed with a new, firm mattress. A shared full bathroom connects to a second bedroom featuring two single beds. I appreciated that the host provided guest toiletries as well. I didn’t want for anything during my stay.

Adjacent to the dining room, a full kitchen also includes a bonus coffee station complete with Keurig pods and snacks. A refrigerator was stocked with complimentary drinks, making me feel right at home.

PRO TIP: Lounge with Fido outdoors. The pet-friendly home includes an astroturf lounge space with a small fenced backyard illuminated by string lights at night.

If you’re considering an overnight stay in Newton, reserve High Street Hideaway after checking its availability.

DINE LIKE A LOCAL

NORM’S COFFEE BAR

Having heard that Norm’s Coffee Bar (613 N. Main St.) was known for their menu of delicious waffle dishes, I knew I was in for a treat. It turns out breakfast dreams do come true.

I chose “The One With the White Sauce” from a shortlist of options. The waffle arrived pillowy, soft, and warm, drizzled with vanilla custard and raspberry sauce. A large portion, I cleared my plate.

While I love to indulge in sweet waffles, I also appreciate their savory waffle with sausage gravy. The waffle options are ever-changing, but you’re guaranteed to find sweet and savory options with creative toppings.

I needed a sidekick to go with my breakfast waffles. I ordered a Dirty Chai Tea Latté. It arrived to my table in a mug so large that I had to use two hands just to sip my tea. Norm’s serves locally-sourced espresso and specialty coffee drinks.

The coffee bar is also well-liked by locals. You will always find a few people in line or waiting for their to-go coffee orders. The service is swift, so you never wait long.

PRO TIP: Don’t forget to purchase a few to-go baked goods from the illuminated case before you head out for the day. Two hour free parking is available on Main Street.

DEL PUENTE CAFÉ

Del Puenta Café (701 N. Main) is another place to savor a hearty breakfast or lunch. Serving Mexican-American menu items, you’ll discover breakfast burritos and bowls, quesadillas, and flapjacks.

As I savored each bite of my scrambled egg with sauteéd vegetables breakfast bowl, a group of locals chatted over coffee at a nearby table. The sizzling sound from a flattop grill and the clamoring of the cook’s metal spatula hummed as a steady order of meals was prepared.

CRUST & CRUMB CO.

A line of eager bakery fans forms early on Saturday mornings at Crust & Crumb Co. (507B N Main St) for freshly baked sourdough loaves, sliced bread, and artisan pastries.

Not only does the owner mill her father’s wheat for sourdough bread recipes, the professionally trained baker is known for delectable galettes, croissants, and her twist on cinnamon rolls.

PRO TIP: Cash or check only. An ATM is available within walking distance.

PRAIRY MARKET & DELI

On Fridays, Prairy Market & Deli (601 N. Main Street) serves panini-pressed grilled cheese sandwiches and homemade soup for lunch. The scratch-made bread is baked in-house and each sandwich includes Kansas-made sliced cheese.

Diners can also add a cup or bowl of tangy tomato soup to the order, or if you’re lucky, the also serve a second soup option.

My sandwich’s exterior was perfectly crusty and the cheese was melted just the right amount. The chicken and rice soup was a solid choice.

PRO TIP: If you’d prefer a take-and-go meal, shop the reach-in case for packaged sandwiches. Don’t leave without visiting the dessert case containing freshly baked goods. The carrot cake is drool-worthy delicious.

BACK ALLEY PIZZA

Who’s hungry for lunch? Back Alley Pizza (125 W. 6th Street) has everything I look for in a pizzeria. Delicious food. Fun atmosphere. Friendly employees.

Located one block off of Main Street, the restaurant is a must-stop when in Newton. Not only does it have a spacious patio for alfresco dining, but the interior setting is uber cool. It was you’re stepping inside a retro garage complete with road signs, concrete floors, and exposed brick walls.

Known for their delicious wood-fired pizza, I asked an employee and a local waiting in line which one of the signature pies I should order. I chose the Graffiti, a 1o” pizza topped with pepperoni, Italian sausage, mushrooms, onion, peppers, and black olives.

The crust was thin with a crunchy, thick rim. Each slice gave way to a stringy mozzarella cheese for the ultimate cheese pull. Overall, 10/10.

Back Alley Pizza also prepares salads, toasted subs, and cannolis for dessert. They keep the menu choices simple allowing diners to choose from 11 signature pizzas or to customize their own.

PRO TIP: A large television is viewable from anywhere in the dining room making it a great place to catch game highlights while enjoying a meal with friends.

ON FIRE BAR & GRILL

On Fire Bar & Grill (1400 S. Kansas Avenue Suite 600) serves Latin-inspired cuisine in a relaxed setting, sports bar-like setting. Choose from fajitas, steaks, burgers, salads, or wings for lunch or dinner. Since the restaurant is known for serving Mexican fare, I was surprised and delighted to see Cajun pasta listed on the menu.

Given the choice of protein options, I selected ground beef, steak, and carnitas street tacos served with rice and beans. The steak had the best flavor, the ground beef satisfied, although the carnitas was served a bit dry. I added homemade green verde salsa to all of them for full flavor.

CATRINAS MEXICAN RESTAURANT

Newton is home to several Mexican restaurants, and Catrinas Mexican Restaurant (214 N. 12th Street) is a popular one among locals for lunch or dinner.

After looking through a nine-page menu listing traditional Mexican favorites, it was clear they are known for fajitas serving several different varieties. I was seeking a lighter lunch and chose to order to a la carte items: a chile relleño and a ground beer taco served with complimentary chips and salsa.

I consider myself a chile relleño connoisseur eating them at nearly every Mexican restaurant I’ve dined. Catrina’s freshly fried chile relleño drizzled with savory red sauce check all the boxes. Unfortunately the taco was underwhelming, so in retrospect, I should have ordered two peppers instead.

PRO TIP: Walk next door to Abarratos Min Mexican Súpermarket to shop for authentic Mexican pastries served daily.

BONUS RESTAURANT RECOMMENDATIONS: Genova Italian Restaurant (pasta, pizza, lamb chops), The Breadbasket (German buffet, breakfast buffet), Curtis C’s Diner (Breakfast,  Sandwiches, Burgers), Railer Nutrition (shakes, tea drinks)

SIT BACK AND SIP WINE

THE BARREL ROOM BY GRACE HILL WINERY

A new edition to Newton, The Barrel Room by Grace Hill Winery (222 N. Main Street) welcomes wine lovers to enjoy a drop-in tasting or glass or wine. I’m a fan of Grace Hill Winery in Whitewater often spending my birthdays there enjoying bring-my-own charcuterie while sharing a bottle of wine. I was thrilled to see the wine outlet also open in the heart of Newton.

After sampling a few dry white and red varieties, Kansas Icon made with 100 percent Chambourcin grapes with a hint of oak and cherry was by far my preferred wine.

PRO TIP: The Barrel Room Saturday is open from 12pm-5 pm or guests can reserve private in-depth wine tasting experiences online. Bring-your-own food is welcome.

SHOP FOR UNIQUE TREASURES

Newton’s historic downtown district is a walkable area, so leave the car parked and let the exploration begin. A number of stores along Main Street are true gems, and you’l also find a few more just beyond the downtown area.

ANDERSON’S BOOK & OFFICE SUPPLY

The front windows of Anderson’s Book & Office Supply (627 N. Main Street) are filled with children’s games and collegiate sports memorabilia. But don’t let that fool you. In business since 1892, the store also sells a wide range of office supplies, greeting cards, calendars, and gifts. Once a JCPenney store (look for the “Golden Rule” tiled entrance), the creaky wood floors and towering shelves of retail take you back to an earlier time.

Phil Anderson III was busily rearranging items in the front window when I arrived. The fourth of five generations of Andersons to run the store, Phil has worked hard to keep the store humming for 64 years. The store’s history is rich in story. The founder’s mother served pies and cakes to hungry railroaders as they passed through Newton.

Shoppers are greeted with the same warm smile and “How can I help you?” Just as the store’s entrance reads, you can expect to be treated just as they would want to be treated with kindness.

Phil is the kind of guy who is eager to talk about Wichita State or University of Kansas sports, colleges we both attended. We bond over a shared love of basketball, and we chat about the history of the story and the importance of shopping local. It’s always a pleasure to spend time in Anderson’s whether I’m in search of new office supplies or just talking with Phil.

Anderson’s is the place to go if you need a stack of legal pads, typewriter repaired, or basic mailing supplies.

BOOK REVIEWS

I hit the jackpot when I walked into Book ReViews (707 N. Main St.) in downtown Newton and so will you. The store carries an extensive collection of used and vintage books all of which are donated to the non-profit business. Book ReView’s proceeds support local charities.

The store is organized and managed by a small group of volunteers who are eager to help you find your next read. Book lovers can peruse well-stocked shelves for every genre from non-fiction to true romance. They make searching out a new book easy. The volunteer workers categorized the books and created thoughtful displays.

PRO TIP: Look for a small section of free books. Bring cash. Credit cards are not accepted.

PRAIRY MARKET & DELI

The moment you walk inside Prairy Market & Deli (601 N. Main Street) you realize that you’ve come to the right place. Having shopped there many times, I can tell you first-hand that it is by far one of the largest natural foods stores that I’ve seen in Kansas and it’s one of the best.

The store’s shelves are neatly stocked with rows of specialty foods. The refrigerator cases keep locally sourced meats, cheeses, and produce chilled. The smoothie bar is ready to serve customers.

You’ll discover a wide variety of locally-made goods at Prairy. They pride themselves on supporting local farmers, makers, and creators. Although a majority of their goods come from the surrounding area or are made on-site, they’ll travel as far as Olathe to pick up inventory. It’s a concept that I appreciate.

They offer options for buying in bulk in multiple stations around the store. I recommend you bring your own container to purchase grains and spices. Top off a growler with fresh Tea-biotics kombucha. Fill a plastic jug with liquid soap.

They make many of the specialty food products on their shelves in-house. Prairy prepares bite-size snacks, Pferrernüsse tiny spice cookies a tradition in German Mennonites, which you must try.

I purchased most delicious ice cream that I’ve tasted in a long time. Made in Newton, Salted Creamery Ice Cream comes in a variety of flavors sold by the pint. I took home Berry Cheesecake and Key Lime Pie.

The store continues to expand its inventory, which includes outdoor gear, wellness products, and children’s toys.

ABARROTES MIN MEXICAN SÚPERMARKET

Home cooks who want to try their hand at cooking Mexican cuisine, should shop at Abarrotes Min Mexican Súpermarket (200 E. 12th Street) for its vast inventory of imported ingredients.

I love to support a locally owned store while buying globally sourced products for fresh pan dulce pastries or hot sauces to add to a home-cooked recipe.

FAITH & LIFE BOOKSTORE

A local told me about a bookstore that I hadn’t shopped at yet, Faith & Life (606 N. Main Street). I met some of Newton’s nicest residents there. I moseyed around the store admiring their large selection of books, Bibles, greeting cards, accessories, and gift items.

A well-stocked store, it is one of the last remaining faith-based bookstores like it in Kansas.

Since 2015, the store is operated as a non-profit with the hope of connecting people with the resources they need. I spotted books and supplies for every age. Parents with children in tow will appreciate the kids’ section devoted to their reading needs.

If you’re seeking a journal for devotionals or an inspirational book of quotes, Faith & Life carries a large inventory of gifts.

GILLISPIE MEATS

Hamburger patties. Smoked sausage links. Ribeye steaks. You’ll find all of the cut-to-order meats and more at Gillispie Meats (420 E. Broadway), where products are sourced from Peabody, Yoder, and Emporia. Loyal customers place order for their popular ham loaf, especially in preparation for Easter and Christmas family gatherings.

The second-generation family run meat shop regularly rotates the meat case’s offerings, but you can alway count on homemade sausage and steak cuts available for purchase. They carry Kansas-made brands, including edro Lopez Mexican food products, Grandma Hoerner’s mustard, Jelly Lady fruit spreads, and Toritilleria Los III Potrillos flour tortillas. Service is friendly and welcoming.

PRO TIP: Shop on Wednesday for bierocks and cream puffs or Thursday for breakfast beirocks.

GOLDEN PRAIRIE BOUTIQUE

Women hoping to create a new outfit from the latest fashion and accessories will want to visit Golden Prairie Boutique (218 W. 6th Street). The unmarked businesses in located adjacent to a salon, an extension of the business.

The quaint store includes several racks of trending shirts, bottoms, and dresses at reasonable prices. A fitting room is available to try on outfits.

CHARLOTTE’S SEW NATURAL

Charlotte’s Sew Natural (710 N. Main Street) is one-stop shopping for stitchers wanting to buy fabric, patterns, or notions for their quilt project. They stock the most cotton bolt fabric in the state. Inventory is organized by color, season, and theme, making it easy to direct oneself to the section of fabric they’re seeking.

The customer service was genuine and helpful during my visit. Employees, who are experience quilters, are eager to swap project stories or assist shoppers of all quilting experience levels.

PRO TIP: The quilt store is located on the All Kansas Nebraska Shop Hop‘s passport and maps of stores. Ask about the Great Sewing Adventure Across Kansas and Nebraska.

PLUM STREET COTTAGE & SHE-SHED

Step into Plum Street Cottage (514 Plum Street) and you’ll find an abundance of must-have items tailored to women who appreciate clothing apparel, unique jewelry, and home decor items. The boutique sits adjacent to a larger building aka the She-Shed, which houses countless antiques. I was shocked to see the volume of inventory.

The building, which was once a Pepsi™ warehouse, is filled to the highest corners of the ceilings with vintage collectibles, ranging from farm tools to furniture. The newest addition to the store includes a refreshment counter serving drinks and baked goods.

PRO TIP: Follow Plum Street Cottage Facebook to learn of events hosted on the patio connecting both buildings.

THRIFT STORES & ANTIQUE SHOPS

NEWTON ET CETERA SHOP

The best prices on clothing apparel for the family or home goods is at the Newton Et Cetera Shop (619 N. Main Street), plus there is almost always a secondary discount on select items.

I was impressed to see well-organized clothing racks full of brand named shirts and pants in new or slightly used condition. A woman’s wool v-nick sweater by Express was priced as low as five dollars. A display at the front of the store displays seasonal decoration and wearables.

PRO TIP: Join the few shoppers who wait for the store to open to score the best deals.

METCALF SISTERS ANTIQUES AND COLLECTIBLES

Treasure finders will want to open their wallet at Metcalf Sisters Antiques and Collectibles (224 N. Main Street) because you’re going to love the store’s inventory of collector’s items. The place is packed tight, and serious antique hunters could easily spend an hour perusing each booth’s merchandise.

From retro drinking glasses to reminders of your childhood like toys and lunchboxes, you’ll find something to bring home.

LAYMAN’S ANTIQUE MALL & FLEA MARKET

At Layman’s Antique Mall & Flea Market (703 N. Main Street), you’re likely to discover a gift for yourself or someone else.

If you love the challenge of looking high and low for the ultimate find, spend at least a half hour perusing countless vendors’ booths.

TEEKS ANTIQUES AND COLLECTIBLES

Colorful glass vases and paperweights shimmer in the front window’s sunshine at Teeks Antiques and Collectibles (204 W 5th St Suite A), a massive warehouse featuring 52 vendor booths.

As I walked from room to room, I spotted depression glass, collector coins, pottery, jewelry, furniture, and signage. The owner has expanded the store over the years and recently added more space with booths.

BONUS ANTIQUE SHOPS: Wharf Road Antiques, Road Runner Sales

BONUS THRIFT SHOPS: Discount Depot, Goodwill

MURAL HUNTING & PUBLIC ART

Newton is home to several public art displays created by talented artists. Newton Murals and Arts Project has relied on volunteers and artists to add 16 murals and painted wall panels to beautify the city.

Some of the oversized vibrant paintings extend the full length of buildings in full view of passersby while others are tucked-away gems situated along alleyways.

A trip to Newton isn’t complete without taking a photo in front of the massive flower mural at 100 block of E 6th Street.

An outlier mural at Bethel College is worth viewing up-close as well. Every year a representative of the graduating class paints a portion of the brick on Haury Hall.

Newton is also home to a couple of public art installations. You must see Blue Sky Sculpture in person. It’s one of the 8 Wonders of Kansas Art, a project completed by multiple artists for Centennial Park.

The pubic artwork mimics the Kansas sky. I recommend taking a few minutes to watch the clouds travel past the sculpture, a breathtaking experience on a beautiful day.

One of the oldest and most intriguing art installations in Newton is Mennonite Settler Statue located at Athletic Park. Standing 17 feet tall, the hand-carved limestone work of art was made in 1974 by Max Nixon to commemorate the Mennonites migration to Kansas from Russia.

HISTORIC WALKING & DRIVING TOUR

The well-kept business district is home to beautifully restored buildings from an earlier time. The town’s buildings date back to 1884, and after Newton’s financial boom from 1886-1887, multiple businesses sprung up in the area.

I referred to the Historic Newton Downtown Walking Tour guide to help me locate significant buildings. Soon, I located the town’s first well, which was dug to provide drinking water to residents in 1871. It was considered the “best water for several years thereafter.” A flowing fountain marks the general location of the well that sits just beyond the doors of the train station at Depot Park.

MILITARY PARK’S STEAM LOCOMOTIVE

Also located downtown, Military Park (Broadway Street between Oak and Pine Streets) is the oldest park in town. Established in 1871, it is the site of Soldier’s Monument, a 10-inch cannon, and an 1880s steam locomotive.

HISTORIC TRAIN DEPOT

While multiple train depots have existed in Newton since the town’s inception, the remaining operational depot (414 N. Main) is a architectural wonder for its Tudor Revival design dating back to 1929.

The active station serves Burlington Northern Santa Fe railway and Amtrak’s Southwest Chief Train.

MUSEUMS NOT TO BE MISSED

WARKENTIN HOUSE

The Warkentin House is a historic mansion (211 E. 1st St.) built in 1887 by the town’s wealthiest businessman, Bernhard Warkentin. He came to the United States from Ukraine and eventually settled in Newton. He purchased the town’s mill and renamed it Newton Milling and Elevator Company. His influence on the town is remarkable.

He was instrumental in the Mennonite migration to the area and he single-handedly brought Turkey Red hard winter wheat to the area and made it a staple crop. Have you heard Kansas referred to as the Breadbasket of the World? We can thank Warkentin for helping to make that happen.

Warkentin and his wife, Wilhelmina, and their two children moved into the Queen Ann-Style mansion in 1888. Now, it is a museum that offers tours by appointment January-March and on weekends depending on the time of year.

The architecture and its furnishings (80% are original to the home) are exquisite. The family lived in a home surrounding by the best money could buy including Italian tiled fireplaces, fine woodwork, stained glass and etched windows, and crystal chandeliers.

The Warkentin’s spared no expense when designing their home down to the smallest details. I was enamored by the door’s metal finishes, the changing wood floors from room to room, the expansive size of the bedrooms, and the imported furnishings.

The kitchen tells the story of what it must have been like to work as a servant for the family in close quarters to a formal dining room – and wait until you see the butler’s pantry! Wilhelmina wanted the best china and linens. Her taste for luxury is reflected throughout the home.

Visiting the home allows everyday people to get a glimpse of what luxury living looked like during a time when rural Kansas was just beginning to prosper. I recommend taking a moment to enjoy the view from the home’s wrap-around porch. To view the museums hours and plan a visit, visit their Facebook page here.

KAUFFMAN MUSEUM

A museum with award-winning exhibitions awaits your visit in North Newton. Kauffman Museum (2801 N. Main St.) sits just off of Interstate 135 across from Bethel College’s campus. Open to the public, its permanent exhibit “Of Land and People” helps visitors understand the undercurrent of faith, nature, and immigration that established the town.

You’ll appreciate the extensive collection of artifacts that tell the story of the Mennonite experience of the Central Plains. From living in a handcrafted sod house to building well-made furniture, it’s a long history of hard work and perseverance.

“Immigrant People” is an exhibit that documents how Mennonites packed their belongings and traveled by rail or wagon and eventually by steam-powered ships to America. Later as homesteaders, they took root in the open prairie in what is now Newton. While some had money, most were poor yet hopeful for the future.

The museum also includes a large collection of Native American clothing and belongings.

I appreciated the Historic Farmstead and Gardens, which are open to tour with a museum employee. The outdoor buildings were built in 1875 and 1886 and were moved to their current site.

I suggest trying the hands-on experiences in the barn. Take a moment to shuck corn using old-fashioned machinery or compare your height to the silhouette of a draft horse. Are you interested in agriculture? The museum’s garden is tended by volunteers. The produce is for sale when in season at the gift shop.

Fantastic traveling exhibitions rotate in the museum’s gallery every three to six months. During my visit, there was a special exhibit about advertising and the tobacco industry on display, “Vapes: Marketing and Addiction.”

A  section devoted to the museum’s namesake, Charles J. Kauffman, showcases his love of nature and taxidermy. The collection includes birds, wild animals, and Kansas native species.

To plan a trip to Kaufmann Museum and learn more about their current and upcoming exhibits, visit their website. It’s a museum worth adding to your day trip itinerary.

HARVEY COUNTY HISTORICAL MUSEUM

Uncover stories of the past at the Harvey County Historical Museum (203 N. Main Street), where an exhibit highlighting retired gas station buildings and a library archive intrigue visitors.

The museum, which is located inside a stunning Carnegie Library building, is free to visit although donations are welcome. Don’t forget to sign the guest book.

TAKE TO THE TRAILS

Another bonus of visiting Newton is taking advantage of its extensive nature trails system. Eight sites along North Newton’s trails make it possible for visitors to learn about prairie life and the people who resided in the area.

If you’re already visiting Kauffman Museum, take a walk outside the building through the wooded tree line to find one of the markers “The Story of Land and People.”

The popular Sand Creek Trail (600 block of W. 5th St.) is a paved path running along Sand Creek from Athletic Park past Centennial Park, which crosses the creek into North Newton.

Referred to as the Trail Between Two Cities, one can also bike the Bethel College path system. To view all of the trails in the area, visit this All Trails link.

STAY ACTIVE PLAYING OUTDOORS

The city has more than enough places to exercise, whether visiting alone or with the family. Newton’s 17 park feature 15 playgrounds, plus an aquatic center, splash pad, and and skate park keep kids entertained. Bring the dog with you to run and howl at Centennial Dog Park.

SLATE CREEK ELEMENTARY INCLUSIVE PLAYGROUND

One particular playground is worth experiencing when school is out of session at Slate Creek Elementary (901 E 4th Street). The newly installed inclusive playground is one of the largest of its kind I’ve seen in the state, a design envisioned by school children and built with fundraised dollars.

It includes a wheelchair ramp, communication board and noise-making, puzzle-like stations for interactive play.

CENTENNIAL PARK DISC GOLF COURSE

Concrete tee pads and wide open play make Centennial Park’s Disc Golf Course worth an 18-hole round to ring chains. The well-groomed landscape includes signage for easy-to-navigate play for beginner to experienced players.

SAND CREEK STATON GOLF COURSE

Traditional golfers will appreciate Sand Creek Station Golf Course (920 Meadowbrook Drive), an 18-hole public featuring strategically placed bunkers and water hazards. The design is a nod to Scottish golf courses. A driving range invites golfers to perfect their swing.

Take a break after the front nine holes to enjoy a grab-and-go meal at Caboose 305 Café before finishing a round.

EASTGATE LANES BOWLING ALLEY

Open since 1961, Eastgate Lanes bowling alley (1610 E. 2nd Street) invites open play Tuesday, Saturday, and Sunday. Lights dim for Cosmic Bowling Friday and Saturday after 9:00 pm.

After reserving a lane, head the snack bar for a bite to eat. The Pepper Jack Bacon Burger is a signature menu item.

I’m grateful for the opportunity to share my love of Newton. It’s a charming town within a short drive from Wichita that offers visitors plenty to do and see.

Newton’s walkable downtown district, local restaurants, and nearby attractions make it a fantastic option for day-trippers in search of adventure.

Have you traveled to the area already? I’d love to hear about the sites you added to your trip in the comments below.
