Whitewater kayaking and rafting are some water recreation activities that are not for the fainthearted. When you find yourself traversing the water's natural forces, the adrenaline rush is unlike anything you've ever experienced. You can experience it in Hartford by taking to the Salmon River by way of the Jeremy River to Route 16 to experience some of the best rides that the river has to offer.
Art that stays within expectations is alright, but that's not what you'll find at Hartford's Matrix Gallery. This is artwork that will challenge you and maybe even elicit feelings that bring about a new way of thinking. This gallery is located in the Wadsworth Atheneum and has attracted an impressive level of attention for its activist exhibitions and attractions that feature non-traditional media and themes that are meant to make the viewer just a little uncomfortable–but in a good way.
Radiance and sparkle are words that are used quite often when you walk through the doors of Hartford's Lux Bond & Green. This is a truly mesmerizing establishment that offers such classic treasures as Tiffany, Waterford, Baccarat, Rolex and Mackenzie-Childs, to mention only a few. They also specialize in fine diamonds and precious gems, and they can custom design any piece of jewelry you can imagine. Also, repair and appraisal are offered in addition to Lux Bond & Green's highly personalized service.
