New England is six states rolled into one amazing, all-season destination of pine-scented mountains, briny ocean villages, sophisticated urban centers – and so much more. It’s also the birthplace of America, a fact attested by a multitude of historic homes and museums. Icons abound: covered bridges, snowy ski slopes, blazing fall foliage, lighthouses perched on craggy cliffs, white churches on town greens, and tail-flapping lobsters fresh from the sea.
