And that's why Yankee Magazine included two Vermont locales in their list of the 12 most beautiful places to visit in New England.
"More than anything, look through these photos and then find their equal wherever you may travel in New England: villages, cities, woods, waterways, orchards, farms," Yankee Magazine said. "Be alert for even the smallest moments of beauty."
Here are Yankee Magazine's picks for best Vermont places to visit in New England.
If you're looking to walk through a paradise of color and warmth, this Yankee Magazine pick might be perfect for you.
What Yankee Magazine said about Shelburne Farms: "In a region of rocky soil and notoriously changeable weather, few things say resilience like gardens whose roots go back decades. Among New England's horticultural gems are the gardens at Shelburne Farms, sited between Lake Champlain and the property's 19th-century mansion turned inn. Created by the former lady of the manor, Lila O. Webb, they've been extensively restored—much to the delight of visitors to these verdant grounds more than a century onward."
You can visit Shelburne Farms at 1611 Harbor Rd.
Do you want to take your family out to a blast from the past? Then Yankee Magazine's other Vermont pick for a best place to visit in New England might be for you.
What Yankee Magazine said about Burt Henry Covered Bridge: "Covered bridges weren't built to star on calendars,' writes New Hampshire author Howard Mansfield in his 2016 book, Sheds. 'They weren't built to be pretty.' Yet the same structures that once were practical solutions to 19th-century problems—including this classic Town lattice truss bridge in North Bennington—are now scenic lures for 21st-century visitors."
You can visit the Burt Henry Covered Bridge at 475 River Rd.

Out-of-towners want to move to these 2 small Arizona cities, report shows. Here's why
Arizonans know the state's population is growing: we can see the changes happening right before our eyes. The data backs this up. Of the 100 cities across the United States that grew the most in 2024, nine were in Arizona, according to Census Bureau data. But it's a different question entirely to ask where Americans dream of moving. That's the question U.S. News & World Report set out to answer by looking at the cities and states that have the most searches online during the first quarter of 2025. The report found that Americans have a strong interest in the Sun Belt, which is comprised of sun-soaked states in the bottom third of the United States, like Texas, Florida and the Carolinas. Of the top 20 most searched cities, 16 were in the Sun Belt. Despite being a part of the Sunbelt, only two Arizona cities made the top 50 list. Here's where. The report ranked Prescott as the No. 29 most searched city. The analysis pointed to its status as a retirement destination as a possible reason for its ranking. "Retirees looking for a warm, arid place to settle down will find that in Prescott, Arizona. The city is located between Phoenix and Flagstaff and surrounded by mountains, with outdoor activities as its calling card," the report stated. Surprise also made the list at No. 37. Like many of the cities in the top 50, it has a relatively low cost of living. Reach the reporter at Follow @reia_reports on Instagram.

When's the next full moon? Here's what to know after June's strawberry moon
The last full moon of Spring is rising at sunset on Tuesday evening. The strawberry moon appeared Tuesday, June 10. The moon in June is also one of the lowest-hanging of the year, as seen from the Northern Hemisphere. While the strawberry moon does appear with a reddish tone, the name derives from the Native American Algonquian tribes, who lived in the northwestern United States. The Ojibwe, Dakota and Lakota tribes also used the name, which marked the wild strawberries in June, according to the Old Farmer's Almanac. Here's everything to know about catching a glimpse of the strawberry moon. According to while the strawberry moon typically happens in June, this year we are in a major lunar standstill — the two-year period of the lunar cycle when the moon's tilted orbit is at its greatest inclination relative to the celestial equator. The strawberry moon's low altitude will be made more extreme by the lunar standstill, which means we'll experience the lowest full moon in over a decade. The following dates list out the rest of the expected full moons in 2025: July 10- Buck Moon Aug. 9- Sturgeon Moon Sept. 7- Harvest Moon Oct. 6- Hunter's Moon Nov. 5- Beaver Moon Dec. 4- Cold Moon USA Today contributed to this story.
