He, in fact, enjoyed\u00a0Hanover so much that he eventually moved there!\u00a0It is easy to see why: the downtown is quaint with an old-fashioned Main Street, a big town common, and many\u00a0mom and pop shops and restaurants with attractive signage. Contiguous with leafy Dartmouth College (an Ivy League college), the Hanover downtown district makes\u00a0for a great walking town. Within close proximity to the Green Mountains of Vermont and the Sunapee and White Mountains regions of New Hampshire, Hanover might just be the nicest town in the area!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why this downtown Hanover\u00a0post is in the Visiting New England on a Budget blog:<\/strong> As mentioned, Hanover is a great walking town, and walking is free! It would be hard to find a better small-town downtown to stroll. Also, the downtown features some nice, low-cost restaurants like Lou&#8217;s and Everything But Anchovies, as well as retail stores like the great Dartmouth Book Store.
