Jan 13 Gilded Age Mansions & History Throughout the Ages

Hello everyone! First off, I wanted to wish you all the happiest of New Years and cheers to a brand a new decade! I am beyond grateful for the past ten years and what it’s given me. A shared a little look back on Instagram on my first post of the year back on the 3rd of this month sharing my experiences and opinions from 2010 until now. It’s on the post of the Boscobel House & Gardens to be more specific. Can’t believe it’s been that long already! Oh how time flies! Anyway, back to the present.
I’m currently in the beautiful coastal city and quintessential New England destination of Newport, Rhode Island exploring beautiful and absolutely captivating Gilded Age mansions and wandering the quaint streets and wharfs of this historical place. So much to see & explore, even on the off-season. Being in January, I conducted a ton of research to ensure a pleasant and memorable trip since not everything is open and I called local businesses to make sure that they’re open and all and that pretty much put everything into place. Let me take you all with me through these photos!
Hello Newport!

Took this just yesterday evening during the most incredible golden hour ever! Couldn’t resist to capture this beauty along the marina!

Began the journey at the beautiful Elms Mansion.

This was taken at Brenton Point State Park a long the photogenic and beautiful Ocean Drive District of Newport where marvelous summer homes and mansions dot the coastline and the waves crash along the rocky shoreline. A sight to see!
