Providence: A Jewel of a City
What shapes a city? What makes it tick? The landscape and streetscapes, the people, the world-renowned buildings, the stories of the past and the hopes for the future. Walk with Rhode Island Historical Society guides to learn about the rivers that were moved and what happened when they were. Learn why art and artists play such a large role in Providence. See award-winning buildings and discover why so much of the historic fabric of Providence is still here after more than 350 years. Walk old streets and new, the RiverWalk, and the parks. Find out why Providence is "a jewel of a city."
