Connecticut, one of the original Thirteen Colonies, is one of America's smaller states. But this New England destination is big on visitor attractions. History and literature go hand in hand in Connecticut, with the former residences of authors Mark Twain and Harriet Beecher Stowe both open to the public. Hartford, the capital city, is also home to the country's oldest public art museum, while the delightfully evocative town of Essex is keeper of one of the oldest continuously run taverns in the United States. Indeed, Connecticut exudes a rich maritime, literary, and national heritage—and it's all waiting to be explored.
