Albany may be little, but it packs a punch! Great cultural and historical spots, a charming night life, and one-of-a-kind restaurants await you in this hidden gem. Start your trip to Albany off right with a stop at the New York State Museum. This place has it all: Art, history, geology, science. All with local ties.

Some Highlights:

  • It’s Free! Who doesn’t love free? They of course welcome donations, but there are no tickets. Just walk right in.
  • It has a wonderful and very moving 9/11 exhibit entitled The World Trade Center: Rescue, Recovery, Response. If you’re old enough to remember where you were that fateful day, you might want to bring your tissues with you– it’s a heavy, and vital, piece of history to view.
  • There is a working carousel that is over 100 years old. And you can ride it, also for free (donation suggested and encouraged). For the kids and kids-at-heart, this merry-go-round on the fourth floor terrace offers child-like delight amidst stunning views of Albany’s downtown. Worth every minute!

Be prepared to spend a few hours here. No need to block out an entire day. It’s a great stop for a low key date, time with family, or just a peaceful afternoon to yourself.

Take in a Show

Albany has several great venues to catch live performances. For some of that unique Albany charm, you won’t want to miss The Egg (yes, it looks like an egg) Center for the Performing Arts or the Palace Theater. Both host nationally and internationally known acts as well as local performers in intimate settings. Each theater is vastly different and worth checking out. Put them on your list!

Food and Fun: Albany After Dark

There are few areas of the city that are known for great times with friends, food and drink. Albany’s Lark Street is a fun, eclectic neighborhood with unique eateries and libations, while Albany’s downtown features several blocks of clubs, bars, and restaurants which highlight the area’s best and most creative culinary artists.

If you are a steak lover, we highly recommend 677 Prime. The food is varied and high quality, the service is unparalleled. And hey, they know their vodka! When you’re there, have the bartender whip you up a “She’s Fierce” cocktail: a mesmerizing blend of Pristine Vodka with the exotic flavors of pomegranate and agave. Yum!
