" "Westchester County is the heart of New York, with a variety of amazing destinations that include grand Rockefeller properties, well-preserved 18th-century homesteads and picturesque farming villages that dot the countryside. Plus, our shows, fairs and festivals are second to none.

Westchester has over 50 parks and recreational areas to explore. It offers six 18-hole golf courses that are open from early spring to late autumn, weather and conditions permitting. It houses a venue for basketball games, concerts and other high profile events.

And Westchester touts the only Art Deco amusement park in America, Playland Park. Playland is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and boasts seven original rides that pre-date 1930.

While the county offers year-round fun, it does have a serious side that lets you get down to business. After all, Westchester is New York's Intellectual Capital®, where a highly educated workforce resides and constant inspiration comes from world-renowned colleges, universities and research centers.

So come and explore Westchester. You'll be glad you did.
