If you’re looking for that cozy, small-town feel interspersed with the excitement of a big city, then Wilmington is the place for you. Located in the northern-most portion of Delaware near the Pennsylvania border, Wilmington has plenty to offer no matter what your age or interests. The specific neighborhood of the city that’s best for you can vary based on your budget, but some of the more popular neighborhoods include Trolley Square (which is known for its beautiful architecture) and Bradywine Park (which is dotted with lovely parks and nature trails).

If you’re the artsy type, you’ll love visiting the Delaware Art Museum, located on Kentemere Parkway. Here, you can enjoy viewing work from local and globally known artists ranging anywhere from the mid 1800s to present day. Be sure to visit plenty throughout the year, though, as they’re always featuring new exhibits and galleries.

The Delaware Center for Contemporary Arts is another must-see attraction.
