The Many Attractions Of Fairfield County, CT

By Joseph Tranturder


Lights, Stamford, action! You are on your way to one of the biggest cities in the world, famous for its diverse people, food, and entertainment. Also slightly infamous for being "the city that never sleeps," which may not be exactly how you would like to spend your vacation. We have the tips you need to not just see the "must-sees" of New York City, but to also relax and enjoy your stay.

The state as a whole is filled with fun activities for individuals or families to take part in, sights to see, places to visit, and attractions to encounter. In fact, the list of things to do in the state of Connecticut is so big it would take a couple pages to list out.

There is no end to the amount of television, movie and musical references we could say to remind you just how famous and important Broadway is in New York City life and culture. But more importantly, as my father once said, "You can't NOT go see a musical on Broadway when you're in New York." Tickets are available online, at the location, or in a raffle in front of each musical's individual theater. Depending on the time of year and the musical you are trying to see, raffles can be an easy way to win tickets at a highly discounted rate.

Central Park

Services and attractions in Fairfield County are directly geared towards this connection to New York State. One such attraction that many people find enjoyable is the Bridgeport to Port Jefferson, NY, Ferry.

As the people themselves are avid sports fans themselves, you'll want to purchase your tickets early to ensure you can get in. Moving away from sports, Boston is also known as the "city of neighborhoods," being populated with 21 officially designated neighborhoods.

After a long day of bike riding and musical-seeing, you will want to get a good night's rest. It is recommended to stay outside of the city itself for a quieter and safer environment. Hotel Zero Degrees in Stamford, Connecticut is the Boutique Hotel that you have been looking for. As well as being one of Stamford's Newest Hotels, it is one of Stamford's Best Hotels. If you visit their website, you will notice that Hotel Zero Degrees offers a New York City package deal including overnight accommodations for two, complimentary breakfast, roundtrip tickets to Grand Central Station, as well a free shuttle services.

The Adventure Park section of the Discovery Museum is made up of an aerial forest rope course which includes zip lines, ropes courses, challenging bridge crossings, and a beautiful and unique view of the scenic Connecticut forest. Closely related is the Beardsley Zoo, where patrons can view exotic animals and enjoy a fun day at the zoo.

From the hotel package deal transportation is available to Grand Central Station in New York City. From there, transportation such as taxis or subways can take you anywhere from Time's Square to the airport. It is recommended to buy a Metro card to use during your stay as it would be more expensive to buy individual tickets every time you take it. Do not forget to never bend it or it will be void.

To ensure that your trip to New York City can go without a hitch, plan ahead and remember the best boutique hotel just a short ride away in Stamford, Connecticut: Hotel Zero Degrees.
