Things To Do
Green Lakes State Park
Two jewels of lakes out in Fayetteville. They are a relatively rare type of lake known as meromictic, which is something you can look up if you don't know what those are. Never stop learning.
Labrador Hollow Unique Area
It's a unique area, what more could you want? Excellent hiking. We failed to find ramps here last year, but it was very late in the season.
Everson Museum of Art
Designed by I.M. Pei. See, we have culture.
Salt City Market
Salt City Market is a vibrant food hall and community hub in downtown Syracuse, featuring local vendors, global cuisines, and a lively, welcoming vibe. Grab a coffee, a drink, snack or a full meal; it’s just a stone’s throw from the Hotel Syracuse. Min’s favorite is the birria tacos from ElleRae’s Taco, and at Habiba’s Ethiopian Kitchen, Ben recommends…well, anything on the menu.
Stroll Armory Square
Armory Square is one of the liveliest parts of downtown Syracuse and a great spot for an afternoon wander or a night out. Within just a few blocks you’ll find cute shops, cocktail bars, breweries, and lots of restaurants. It’s also home to the Museum of Science & Technology (MOST). From Armory Square, you can hop on the Onondaga Creekwalk, a scenic path that’s perfect for a stroll.
Gannons Isle Ice Cream
Superb ice cream, which is made in-house. Don't speak ill of it within earshot of Ben. Min will often get the soft serve. This is wrong, but we all have our blind spots.
