Although named after Essex, England, this county is located in the state of New Jersey, right next to the famous New York City. Newark is the most important city, whose history dates back to the 17th century, and has plenty of new things to do, entertaining, and full of charm. When spring arrives, Newark's nature is dressed in its best clothes and proudly displays the largest collection of cherry blossom trees in the country: more than 5,000 trees in full bloom. An image that is recommended to be seen from Branch Book Park, to enjoy these delicate blossoms with the brilliant blue sky as a backdrop. The New Jersey Performing Arts Center has been one of the largest and most fertile performing arts venues in the United States for more than two decades. With a mission to present a wide range of live performances and plays both local and international, the institution presents everything from comedians to jazz reunions, R&B concerts, and classical ensembles, delighting New Jerseyans. Essex County is also home to other municipalities such as West Orange and Montclair, characterized by its large GreenTown Center shopping mall, its Montclair Art Museum, the always wonderful Wellmont Theater, and its green spaces to enjoy, such as Glenfield Park and the Van Vleck House and Gardens. Thomas Edison National Historical Park preserves Thomas Edison's laboratory and residence, Glenmont, in West Orange as well. These laboratories operated for over 40 years and were designed, in 1887, by architect Henry Hudson Holly. From here came the motion picture camera, improved phonographs, sound recordings, silent and sound films, and the alkaline nickel-iron electric battery.
