Reviewed By DateWithMyCity - New York, New York, United States
What an interesting, lovely spot: we visited with the "wild residents" both inside the space, & outside on a walk (snakes, birds, frogs, turtles & butterflies). Also bought honey/beeswax soap - the boutique has lots of fun gifts to choose from. A great stop for a breath of fresh air & family learning visit.

David Bradley chocolate is incredible. We loved the sample and made several purchases. But you can't tour the factory. There is a small observation window to watch the workers, but that's it.

This temple is meant for everyone and is worth a tour through its inner sanctum. I’ve been there twice with friends and relatives and visitors. Everyone marvels at the beauty and detail of workmanship.

Don't let the bargain prices fool you. This is a clean, comfortable theater showing 1st run movies with adjustable lounge chair seating. Unlike most area theaters, the ticket prices aren't ridiculously high, they still have bargain matinees and you can refill your large popcorn. So, adjust your lounge chair and enjoy!

The ivy league campus is ideal for a stroll, where some interesting buildings may be visited.
Reviewed By Herstory_62 - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
A classic magnificent campus in the heart of a bustling & charming historic town that maintains centuries of tradition, alongside state of the art libraries, museums, facilities & a magnificent chapel. An obviously diversified student population of women & men enhances the ambiance, as well as the appeal for generations to come.
6. Von Thuns Farm
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 6 reviews
Reviewed By Didojen - Marlboro, New Jersey
I think the admission price can be a little steep here for the types of activities offered but my kids absolutely love it. The attractions here are simple but fun! They have pedal cars, rubber duck races, building a barn, petting zoo, pumpkin checkers and a lot more.
The corn maze is a lot of fun and very interactive. They give you a map and there are several games you can play inside.
I wouldn't recommend this farm for apple/pumpkin picking. The apples are pricey and not the best and the pumpkins are just thrown in a field.
Make sure you take the hayride to the pumpkin field for the corn cannons. The hayride is included in the admission but the corn cannons are not.
I normally wouldn't think the admission is worth it but my kids could spend all day here just running around and playing simple games. If you go on fall weekends they have food trucks there.

I have visited the park many a time, be it for a morning walk, or to cheer contestants or to watch a concert or just to watch the deers. It is a beautul park with playgrounds, icerinks, tennis courts, softball and football courts, paddling etc. They even have a cricket pitch. Love to watch the joggers, bicyclers and how could I forget the pet park.

This charming house is tucked into a little side street in Cranbury, NJ. The original part of the house was built in 1834 and boasts a huge walk-in fireplace and wide-plank, pine floors. Furnishings and decorations are of the appropriate period. Interestingly, each part of the house is preserved and decorated in the fashion of the time it was built. I felt as if I was walking through room-sized time capsules from different ages! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant. She explained about many items in each room and told how they were used back then.
There is a large room on the back of the house which holds temporary exhibitions too. One is free to wander here without a guide.
Admission is free, but donations are accepted. We found free parking on the street in front of the house.
Good for families, but young children may find it boring.

The Art Museum on the Princeton University campus is small but when it comes to the masterpieces on exhibit, the museum is on par with New York’s Metropolitan. There are great works by Picasso, Braque, Cezanne, American artists like Remington, Gilbert Stuart, Stuart Davis and Georgia O’Keefe. And best of all it’s Free. There are great restaurants and shoppes just a few yards away. So visit the Art Museum and the classy town of Princeton.

Great place to visit for a solitude walk or with family. Clean, plenty of things to view and enjoy. I's say a perfect retreat for at least a few hours.
