Manchester isn’t your typical New England getaway. It’s a city where history, innovation, and unexpected discoveries come together to create trips that are anything but run of the mill.

From the Currier Museum of Art’s masterpieces and the architectural wonder of the Frank Lloyd Wright–designed Zimmerman House to the eclectic boutiques and cafés lining Elm Street, Manchester offers a dynamic playground for curious travelers.
