5 Instagrammable Places in NJ

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at TCNJ chapter.

For any collegiette looking to up her Instagram game, look no further than the wonderful state of New Jersey. The possibilities are endless, spanning from views of New York City in northern New Jersey, to beautiful beach scenes in the south. Here are five Instagrammable places in The Garden State that are sure to make your followers wish there was a ‘love’ option.

1. Asbury Park

The boardwalk is lined with various murals, perfect for any colorful Instagram profile. Apply a filter to make the colors pop, and you’re sure to have your followers wondering where you found such a colorful background for your selfie.

2. Liberty State Park

Everyone loves a breathtaking view of New York City, and Liberty State Park is the best place for the perfect shot. Write a clever New York City caption, and the likes will come pouring in.

3. Grounds for Sculpture

The art park in Hamilton has so much to do and so many exhibits, the possibilities for a great Instagram picture are endless. From nature scenes to oversized sculptures, the hardest part is picking the best one.

4. Stairway to Heaven Trail

While getting some exercise hiking the trail, you’ll also have awesome opportunities for some nature Instagram pictures. Take in the fresh air, snap a pic, and show the world that you left your bed today.

5. Paulinskill Viaduct

The once large railroad track but now abandoned location is painted with layers of graffiti. Not only will you get a cool Instagram, but you might even have a better story, as the viaduct has been reported by Weird NJ multiple times.
