New Jersey is one of America's most densely populated and historic states. Bordered by the Hudson and Delaware rivers, and Atlantic Ocean, it has been both a strategic battleground and a vacation destination for generations. Lighthouses and boardwalks invite you to stroll by the sea and mountain trails inspire climbs to view amazing vistas. You can be inspired by innovation at the Edison National Historic Site or dream of riches in Atlantic City. Watch the lights of Manhattan twinkle from the Palisades Parkway or explore the Victorian homes and gardens of Bay Head on the Jersey Shore. Abundant forests, wetlands, sand dunes and blooming gardens await in exceptional New Jersey.
