PENNSYLVANIA STATE GUIDE

Pennsylvania

Philadelphia, a major port and once the largest city in North America, is full of history drawing millions of visitors every year to follow the walking trail through Independence National Historical Park. The city also has many fine museums, parks and gardens and a lively culture scene.

Pittsburgh, with its more industrial heritage, enjoys a beautiful location where two rivers meet to form the Ohio, attractions include many museums, the Science Centre, Pittsburgh Zoo, the National Aviary, river cruises, floating nightclubs, and inclined tramways affording panoramic views from the surrounding hills.

In scenic Pennsylvania there's something for everyone: family resorts and honeymoon retreats in the Pocono Mountains, charming inns of Bucks County, lakes and waterfalls, boating and fishing, historic sites, gardens and the superb Wyeth art museum in the Brandywine Valley, the famous Civil War battlefield site and Eisenhower farmhouse at Gettysburg and the Amish and Mennonites of Lancaster County.
