There are some historical places to see in Newington, but it is mainly a normal suburban town.
Get in
editBradley International Airport in Windsor Locks is just under an hour away by car.
Get around
editNewington is serviced by a regional bus system [CT Transit], although it only has limited stops. You can walk along the Berlin Turnpike, but this would be impractical without a car as it takes time to get from one location to the next, assuming you don't stop in every store.
