It finally warmed up enough to go outside without bundling up in 5 layers. The days are longer, sunnier, and there is a nice, cool breeze. You definitely don’t want to spend all day cooped up inside, so check out these five spots around TCNJ to enjoy the gorgeous weather.

1. Princeton – just a short drive from TCNJ’s campus awaits beautiful architecture, shops, and a variety of food options.

2. Grounds for Sculpture – only 15 minutes away from TCNJ, enjoy sculptures, peacocks, and wildlife. 

3. New Hope, PA – Cross state borders and visit this quaint town filled with boutiques, restaurants, and art galleries. It is just 25 minutes from campus.

4. Philadelphia, PA – Get a taste for city life and go into Philly. Walk the city streets and explore.

5. NYC – Hop on a train and spend the day in NYC. Go to Central Park, shopping, and enjoy a variety of cuisines.
