We stayed in Providence for one night on our way up to visit College Girl in Boston.
Must fuel up on some caffeine along the way!We'd been to Providence a few times for college visits but hadn't explored the city too much.
Mr. Click had a meeting so I struck out on my own for the afternoon.
I headed to their downtown area.
Providence is very walkable and full of charm.

I had fun stopping in the cute shops and admiring the old and new architecture.
Love me some old doors!
Providence is home to eight colleges and universities so it's definitely a college town.
It truly is the Renaissance City!
That night we went to the Federal Hill neighborhood (their version of Little Italy) for dinner.We had dinner at Zooma Trattoria.

I chose Zooma because it had some good vegan options (I had the pasta with roasted veggies and pesto). Everything was excellent there!
After dinner we walked down by the water. I would love to come back in the summer for an authentic Venetian gondola ride and to see the Water Fire show.

Hi Heather, I love this blog post you did on Providence Rhode Island. We love when we go on weekends to visit my daughter at college. It's such a fun city and we love to explore all the shops and restaurants there. We hope to explore more of Rhode Island this summer! Julie
