Your natural inclination on setting out to explore Burlington might be to head for the
waterfront
. In fact, this is a surprisingly undeveloped area, though Battery Park at its northern end makes a good place to watch the sun go down over the Adirondacks - especially when there's a band playing, as there often is at weekends.
A better target is the pedestrianized
Church Street Marketplace
, a few blocks back, which holds Burlington's finest old buildings and its modern cafés and boutiques. The free
Robert Hull Fleming Museum
on Colchester Avenue (Tues-Fri 9am-4pm, Sun 1-5pm) has an interesting collection of art and artifacts from all over the world, including pre-Columbian pieces, while north on Hwy-127, the
Ethan Allen Homestead
(mid-May to mid-June daily 1-5pm; mid-June to mid-Oct Mon-Sat 10am-5pm, Sun 1-5pm; $4) offers a multifaceted look at the life and times of Vermont's controversial founding father.
