Bristol is a very special place and going there will make you feel that instantly. Independence Park is a wonderful historical environment. There is so much history and culture there to find. I haven't been in a little bit and walking around on a overcast day felt like it was perfectly Sunny and a gorgeous day outside. Bristol just has that effect on me. I was able to get some very pretty photos. Not as many as usual but I believe you will get a total sense of how pretty it is there. The best part is people walking around they're all very kind. It almost feels like the good old days and everybody is just happy being out and about. Enjoy your time there!

There is public transportation from RIPTA, and the bus 60 goes directly from Providence to Bristol. Yhis is also a beautiful place to walk and enjoy when nothing...
