Enjoy the picturesque beauty of Rhode Island, the
Ocean State, with its Venetian-style bridges, quaint
cobblestone walkways, and small-town charm.
Rhode Island has its own share of quirky facts. For
instance, the long-favored childhood toy Mr. Potato
Head was created here by Hasbro
in 1952 (and in 2000 a tourism campaign flooded the
state with giant, six-foot tall Mr. and Mrs. Potato
Heads created by local artists, some of which were
later auctioned off for charity).
Looking for a little sporting history? The island
is renowned for its competitive tennis matches and
boasts the oldest grass tennis courts in the US at
the International
Tennis Hall of Fame.
Wine lovers will be pleasantly surprised to hear that
the state has four wineries, all of which offer tours,
tastings, and an impressive selection of varietals.
And with more than 400 miles (643 kilometers) of coastline
(with both salt and fresh water), water sports, boating,
fishing, and lying on the beach are always options
for the 1,076,164 population. But, if you're a landlubber,
more than 60 percent of the state is woodland and peppered
with bike and hiking paths. In the winter, get out
the ski gear, as one place on Rhode Island, Yawgoo
Valley Ski Area, does offers ski slopes (albeit
small ones) and a snow-tubing park, which are both
especially suitable for children and novices. All in
all, America's smallest state has a great deal to offer,
and it's all presented in one very pretty package.
