The 5 Most Popular Attractions in Pennsylvania



Today, PA is a calm state with well-to-do people and a lot of opportunities. But, with each of the most popular attractions in Pennsylvania, you will learn something about the history and culture of this part of the world which is truly American in the best and worst senses of the meaning.

The five places you need to visit here are:

● Hersheypark
● Philadelphia Museum of Art
● Fallingwater
● Longwood Gardens
● Liberty Bell

All of the attractions and historic sites in PA give a bit of color to the idea of what this place is and how it gets here. The very first clue of this is the name itself, as Penn’s Woods has a ‘’Latin-ish’’ vibe and is obviously given by one person, who just happens to be given this land by the government for the connections of his father. Contemporary if anything.

Further, the state was a focal point in the revolutionary war, housing the famous Liberty Bell, and Philadelphia serving as the de facto national capital for a time.

Now, everything is modern and focused on the betterment of the lives of people living here. From hotels and resorts to casinos and ‘’racinos’’, ending with beautiful nature preserves and museums.

For more information on the best PA online casino sites you can visit the page on the internet, and that might be the best way to experience that aspect of the state. For others, visiting in person is the best way to go.

Hersheypark
This place was first envisioned by Milton S. Hershey in 1906 as a leisure park for the employees of the chocolate company and their families. At the time, this was more of a show of opulence and prestige of the company than anything else.

Now, it is a full family theme park that harbors a striking resemblance to the themes from ‘’Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’’. Not to mention that you can get a tour of the factory itself. While many of the machines are now not in use, there are still samples of premium chocolate to be taken.

On the cultural and artistic side, the whole part is an homage to American consumerism. But, if you travel with young people they will surely appreciate the visit.

Philadelphia Museum of Art
Originally chartered almost 150 years ago, the Philadelphia Museum of Art is one of the most extensive collections of historic and artistic artifacts in the entire United States.

The museum houses almost a quarter a million pieces from all over the world. Aside from American and European collections, there is a considerable number of items from Asia, Africa, as well as pre-Columbian America, including Mezzo American artifacts.

For anyone even remotely interested in art, history, and science, this museum is a place you need to visit. And, if you are more of a fan of modern art, there is always the staircase from the movie ‘’Rocky’’ that you just need to run up against.

Fallingwater
Called the ‘’best all-time work of American architecture’’ Fallingwater is Frank Lloyd Wright’s magnum opus and truly a masterpiece of connecting nature, design, technique, and good taste in living spaces.

The park around it itself is magnificent, as well as the waterfall, but the connection of the two seems like something that popped right out of an epic fiction novel. In many ways, it combines the semblances of the Belle Époque in Europe with the truly American desires of the early 20th century.

Longwood Gardens
This is one of few places that you must visit in Pennsylvania where thinking about the past and what it means is not at all needed. The Longwood gardens are a phenomenal collection of botanical samples arranged with love and care to a striking result.

The mixture of French and English tendencies in gardening makes the experience truly something you will find hard to find anywhere else in the world.

Liberty Bell
Few things sound more American than the Liberty Bell. Commissioned as the State House Bell in 1752, and was rung on the 8th of July 1776 to proclaim the reading of the Declaration of Independence.

While currently not in use, this bell is a sign of one of America’s core values and is especially interesting for anyone who loves 18th-century revolutionary history. Those in the know will recognize the biblical references and understand that the land it is referring to is not just liberty for people of the United States, but all of the land, everywhere.

This bell used to be used to call in legislative sessions and alert the public of announcements. Now, it serves to show us the history that influenced not just the nation, but the whole world.
