New Haven Green

The New Haven Town Green is one of New England's oldest, completed in 1638. Portions of the Green were used as a cemetery until the 1820s when the headstones were moved to the new Grove Street Cemetery. The 16-acre public park is a popular site for concerts and picnics, and an overall excellent gathering place for locals and tourists alike. The Green is also the location of an Amistad memorial. Along the Green there are three churches built in the 1810s: Center Church, United Church and Trinity Church.

Sleeping Giant State Park

Also known as Mount Carmel Park, the Sleeping Giant State Park lives up to its billing as an untouched wilderness with 1,465 acres (593 hectares) of sweeping semi-arid expanses.

The grounds are riddled with a superabundance of hiking trails and picnic areas that add up to 32 miles (51.44 kilometers) of outdoor recreation. The park's southern shores are home to some of its most complex ecosystems, thanks to the life-sustaining waters of the River Connecticut's tributaries, which is also a popular fishing zone swarming with trout.
