History

When Vermont joined the original 13 colonies to become the 14th state, Vermont's history officially started in 1791. Its name is a tribute to the 67 mountains and states that give our region its morphology and breathtaking vistas, "Les Monts Verts," which is French for "Green Mountains." New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Canada, and New York are all about the Green Mountain State. It is 157.4 miles long, 90.3 miles broad at the Canadian border, and 41.6 miles long at the border with Massachusetts. The Connecticut River serves as the eastern border, while more than half of Lake Champlain's length serves as the western border with New York.

Top Tourist Attractions

• Stowe

Stowe is a must-see place in Vermont thanks to its covered bridge, white-spired church, worn-out farms, and ski tracks down the hillside. Also, the place is well known for being traditionally famous for skiing, including a Ski Museum where you can get to know more deeply about the sport. 

• Church Street Marketplace 

Church Street is located in the center of Burlington, and although is just four blocks long, the place creates a large, traffic-free area for public events and street life, even in the winters of Vermont. In addition to the events planned throughout the year, there are sidewalk cafés, benches, and public artworks, and the buildings nearby are home to various stores, eateries, and boutiques. For most people, the place resembles an Italian piazza in the summer when everyone is outside.

• Burlington Bike Path and Waterfront Park

From Oakledge Park north to the Winooski River, eight miles of Burlington's Lake Champlain coastline is seen across the area. Also, there is a route for runners and walkers with seats at strategic locations that provide the greatest views of the lake. Along its middle part, a boardwalk connects numerous parks that mark the seashore. 

• Visit a Maple Farm

Vermont is the leading producer of maple syrup in the country because of the maple trees that cover the entire state. From late February to early April, when the sugar houses are thoroughly boiled and you can taste the golden syrup being created, is the best time to visit for the whole maple experience.
