State description

Vermont is perhaps one of the most “soulful ” places on the planet. Just imagine: mountains covered with forests hide lakes and rivers of the purest water, small elegant towns breathe hospitality and cordiality, local residents (not only people but also animals) live in a leisurely rhythm. This is the home of maple syrup, cheddar cheese and real American Teddy Bear.

The small state of Vermont, both in area and population, is located in the northeastern United States and bears the official nickname “The State of the Green Mountains “(the word Vermont comes from the French Vert mont — “green mountain”). And they still argue about what the name came from – maybe from the dense forests of Vermont, or maybe from the green mica found in the mountains. One thing is certain: the small size of the state is more than made up for by the abundance of New England beauty, as it is commonly called.

Vermont is the leading U.S. producer of golden maple syrup, which is made from the juice collected in Vermont in the spring from “sweet” maples.

The state capital is Montpelier. The largest city in the state is Burlington.
