Welcome to
WESTCHESTER COUNTY!
Just north of New York City lies a trove of natural beauty, cultural treasures, historical riches, and recreational opportunities. It’s our home, Westchester County. Spread over
500 square miles in the magnificent
Hudson Valley, nestled between
the Hudson River and Long Island
Sound, you’ll find charming towns and
villages, sophisticated city centers, and
thousands of acres of green space. The county is a haven for day trips and longer getaways that go beyond expectations.
Whether you’re traveling independently, taking a tour, participating in a meeting, or planning a social occasion, Westchester’s residents, hotels, restaurants, shops, and attractions all welcome you to savor our picturesque scenery and experience our warm hospitality.
There is truly something for everyone here.
Our culinary scene is as spectacular as our setting. Westchester is the most diverse county in New York
State outside of New York City’s five boroughs — and our restaurants are equally diverse, offering delectable cuisines from all across the globe. Foodies also flock here to enjoy our pioneering farm-to-table restaurants, famous chefs, and delightful craft beverage industry.
Our imposing mansions and extraordinary gardens are so stunning that they are frequently featured in popular films and television shows.
Our museums and performing arts venues — many of them historic themselves — are varied and accessible.
Our fascinating history encompasses the indigenous Lenape, European settlers and enslaved people, the Colonial period, the American Revolution, and the Gilded Age.
Our landmark amusement park, Playland, and other family- friendly attractions including our many farms, delight adults and children alike.
And our public parks, preserves, trails, and golf courses are plentiful, expansive, varied — and, frankly, spectacular.
It’s easy to get here — by plane, train, bus, or car. A wide range of accommodations, efficient meeting spaces, and unique event locations make it easy to plan a satisfying stay or a successful event. We look forward to seeing you here in Westchester!
Sincerely,
George Latimer
County Executive
