Tee off in style–despite the size of the course–when you take the whole family out for a great day of fun at Fairmount Glen Miniature Golf. This attraction has been a Syracuse tradition for over 60 years. The course is as challenging as it is fun, and the kids will love trying to make that nearly impossible shot! The venue offers a friendly, relaxed atmosphere that also gets rave notices for not only being well maintained, but also for its very friendly staff. Plus, don't forget to stop in to visit the concession stand for a tasty treat before or after your game.

Syracuse's nickname as “The Salt City” is just one of the stories you'll uncover when you visit the Salt Museum. The facility was built with timbers from an actual 19th century salt warehouse. The venue explains how in the mid-1800s, “boiling blocks” were used to boil salt water and evaporate the brine which left the salt behind. Syracuse went on to become the national leader in the production of salt, and the museum traces the many aspects of this unique area history. Visitors can see artifacts and attractions like wooden barrels, kettles, a saltworkers “neighborhood” and a full-scale reproduction boiling block.

When in doubt about where to find a good time on the city's nightlife scene, go blue! To the Blue Tusk, that is. This is a bar that makes a special effort to maintain its reputation for being one-of-a-kind by offering an ever-changing selection of the highest quality international and specialty beers, fine wine and gourmet food. And its location only adds to the place's vintage air, as it can be found in the heart of historic Armory Square in downtown Syracuse.
