Connecticut is New England's southernmost state — a compact, densely layered destination where Ivy League prestige meets colonial seafaring heritage, world-class pizza, casinos, and Long Island Sound beaches. From Yale's Gothic spires in New Haven to Mystic's tall ships, from Hartford's Mark Twain house to the gilded estates of Greenwich, Connecticut packs an extraordinary range of experiences into 5,543 square miles.
