✨ Rochester to the Rescue! My Photography Pilgrimage 🥹
📍 George Eastman Museum 900 East Ave, Rochester, NY 14607 The world's oldest photography museum—and the former home of Kodak founder George Eastman! This cultural gem has three must-see sections: 1️⃣ Photography Museum (vintage cameras + 19th-20th century prints) 2️⃣ Eastman's Historic Mansion (more below!) 3️⃣ Gardens (closed in winter ❄️) 📸 Photo Nerd Heaven: The museum traces camera evolution and printing tech, ending at a glass corridor with panoramic garden views. But the REAL magic? Eastman's house! His "Green House" lobby bursts with tropical plants + global souvenirs (think: African ivory), and his clockwork orchestra literally woke him up with classical music! 🎻⏰ I dreamed of visiting after seeing one photo online—and reality exceeded every expectation. Every corner is frame-worthy! ✨ #TorontoLife #CanadianExpat #USWorkVisa #NYCDayTrips #WeekendVibes #RochesterNY #BuffaloBound #TravelGram #InstaPerfect
