The town made BuzzFeed's list of "24 Small New England Towns You Absolutely Need to Visit." What do you think makes Guilford a great place to visit?

An online news magazine's survey of New England towns has confirmed what Guilford residents have known for quite some time: Guilford's not just a great place to live, but a fantastic place to visit as well. 

The town made BuzzFeed's list of "24 Small New England Towns You Absolutely Need to Visit — coming in 15th overall, and serving as the top finisher for Connecticut towns.

The article notes that "the town of Guilford is replete with reminders of its historic past."

"With many colonial and Victorian homes still standing, architecture is just one of Guilford’s charms," Buzzfeed staff writer Adam Davis writes in his post. "There are various trails and parks where visitors can take in the sights of the Long Island Sound, along which Guilford is located."

Two other Connecticut towns also made the list. Wethersfield finished in the 18th slot, and Washington came in at 21.
