Come And Visit These 5 Attrations In Fort Lee

FORT LEE, NJ -- Fort Lee has a vast amount of history behind it, going as far back as the Revolutionary War! If a visit to this historic town is in the future, TripAdvisor has the MUST SEE attractions. With so many attractions and so little time, here are the top 5 sites worth a visit, plus what one reviewer had to say about their experience.

1. Fort Lee Historic Park. Not only a great place for a hike or a picnic but it was also the location where a legendary battle during the American Revolution took place.

One reviewer from Washington Township, NJ said: "This park marks the site of earthworks and artillery that General Washington used to try to close the Hudson to British warships. There are rebuilt earthworks, a log blockhouse and a museum that does an excellent job in explaining this area's role in the Revolution. The staff (headed by John Muller - a true period curmudgeon) who does a lot to answer questions. There are school activities (reservations by school are needed) throughout the Fall and Spring on school days. This is history the kids will remember. There're also living history events (with the biggest one on the anniversary of the Fall of the Fort in the fall) run by the Brigade of the American Revolution. The log soldiers' hut is worth a stop and at scheduled times there are firings of the musket and the cannon. The trails and woods are delightful to walk - the South end features a beautiful view of Manhattan and, of course, there is a spectacular view of the George Washington Bridge. Admission is free, but there is a small charge for paring in the park itself."

2. Ipic Theater Hudson Lights. A movie theater with a restaurant. Enjoy the latest blockbuster while have delectable delights.

One reviewer from West New York, NY said: "Excellent place to see a movie. Great service, great seating, clean, private. Great food, fantastic family night."

3. Constitution Park. A small neighborhood park with playgrounds for the children.

One reviewer from Fort Lee, NJ said: "Well maintained park with a children's playground and playing fields. Park has a paved walking path with exercise equipment along the way."

4. Firemen's Park. Another small park with plenty of trees.

One reviewer from Fort Lee, NJ said: "A park located in a quiet block. Decent playground and swings for kids to play on. Has one of Fort Lee wading pools open during the summer -- large trees around the wading pool area which keeps it shady but also has leaves falling into the pool. Also has some benches."

5. Ross Dock Picnic Area. Pack a lunch in a picnic basket and then walk it off by the river.

One reviewer from Everett, Washington said: "This is a great place for a picnic, a walk, or just to relax right on the river. Great views in every direction. The drive, ride or walk down is really special with all the impressive rock walls. Lots of parking and restrooms are available."
