Rhode Island Essentials

Rhode Island’s history spans from the 1763 Touro Synagogue to the Gilded Age opulence of The Breakers and Marble House in Newport. In Providence, the 1904 State House features one of the world's largest self-supporting marble domes, while the RISD Museum houses over 100,000 objects. Coastal highlights include the 3.5-mile Newport Cliff Walk and the 1875 Southeast Lighthouse on Block Island. Historic commercial hubs include the 1828 Westminster Arcade, the nation's oldest indoor shopping mall, and the 1673 White Horse Tavern.
