Let curiosity get the best of you. The greater Newark region is multi-faceted, an endless parade of offerings, adventures and opportunities. Explore our walls, our halls, and our grand institutions; this city's history dates back to the 1600s.
Branch Brook Park
Located just minutes away from the heart of downtown and all of its attractions, Branch Brook Park is a gorgeous retreat in the middle of an urban landscape. Wander through its 360 acres of sprawling meadows and woodlands. Walk, jog, bike or birdwatch along the miles of undulating terrain, filled with streams and lakes and lined with 4,000 cherry blossom trees.
New Jersey Devils
See the New Jersey Devils heat up the ice in the Prudential Center. This NHL team suffered a losing streak during their first thirteen seasons, but the sports team's luck turned around and the Devils are currently tied with the Detroit Red Wings for the longest winning streak in the US.
Krug’s Tavern
In the heart of Newark’s IronBound district, you’ll find Krug’s Tavern. Both a restaurant and a dive bar, this laid-back, casual tavern is open for lunch, Happy Hour, dinner and into the late hours of the night. Munch on oversized sandwiches or the best burger in town while you sip on your choice of typical dive bar drinks.
