What to See and Do in Rochester, New York, Rochester, New York
Rochester is the third largest city in New York State, and the gateway to the beautiful聽Finger Lakes聽region. It is vibrant and booming, a centre for culture, cuisine and craft beers. And it is conveniently situated between New York City and Niagara Falls. All of that makes it an ideal tourist destination, but it鈥檚 not as well known as it should be, meaning that it retains a friendly and intimate atmosphere.
Rochester is well known as a lively centre for the arts. There are conventional 鈥� and world-class 鈥� offerings in the form of classical music, jazz, art and drama. But there is also a quirky alternative scene, with music of every conceivable genre, and festivals galore. In particular, don鈥檛 miss the聽Rochester Fringe Festival, an eleven day extravaganza of visual and performance arts, incorporating music, magic and more鈥�

Another is devoted to Susan B Anthony, a pioneer in the Women鈥檚 Suffrage Movement. But there are lots of other museums to enjoy (more about聽Rochester鈥檚 museums聽here). ......
