You can't leave Amherst without a slice from Antonio's! If you'd like to observe college students in one of their natural habitats, drop by at 1AM on a weekend night when the bars close. It's a hoot!

Sightseeing

If you're walking through the Amherst College campus, make sure to check out the Yushien Japanese Garden. It's a tucked away oasis of tranquility. There are a few signs on campus, but ask anybody on campus for directions. And it's free!
