River and Long Island Sound — and bordering New York City — Westchester County offers the best of both worlds: the serenity of the Hudson Valley with easy access to the excitement of the Big Apple. In fact, Fodor’s — the largest international travel publication — named the Hudson Valley Region to its “Go List” of the top 25 places to visit in 2015.

Around Once You’re Here. Westchester County’s bus system, the Bee-Line, serves over 30 million passengers annually and uses the MetroCard, the same payment system as public transportation
in New York City. Arriving by car? Countless major highways criss-cross the County for quick access to all destinations.
