Walking Tour of Victorian Cape May

We reached the tip of New Jersey and swung a left at Exit Zero for the seaside village of Cape May! It has been a popular resort destination since the 1700s, and despite a fire destroying most of the town in 1878, it has stayed strong! Cape May used the disaster as a chance to get away from big hotel development and focus on Victorian inns and homes, with gingerbread trim, wrap-around porches, witches-hat roofs, and charm galore. Modern-day Cape May has done an incredible job of preserving the 600+ Victorian buildings and earned the entire old town the designation of a National Historic Landmark!
