| New Hampshire State and Visitor Information |

| Its license plates carry the state motto: "Live Free or
Die." The state nickname is "The Granite State", in reference to its
geology and its tradition of self-sufficiency. Several other official nicknames exist but
are rarely used. Among New Hampshire's assets are its rugged land and varied climate.
The state is a year-round playground, and tourism contributes heavily to its
economy. Some 1,300 lakes and ponds, fed by myriad mountain streams, beckon
fishermen, swimmers, and boaters. Game abounds in the woods and meadows; mountains
challenge climbers and skiers; and scenic roads and lanes attract cyclists and hikers.
An appealing flavor of the past is preserved in the state's neat towns and
villages. |
