State College
Mountains as far as the eye can see

Somerset

Harrisburg
Big city with a small-town feel
Located on the Susquehanna River is Harrisburg, the capital of Pennsylvania. Along with an impressive State Capitol, there are attractions like the National Civil War Museum for history buffs and City Island for those who like to stay active.
Pittsburgh
Inspiration for all who visit
“Steel City” is perfect for visitors that want a mix of culture, history, art and outdoor activities. Pittsburgh was once a major industrial hub, attracting many inventors, entrepreneurs and educators who have left their mark on the city.
Philadelphia
Where love rules
People call it the “City of Brotherly Love” for a reason—its cultural, artistic and historic significance makes it easy to fall for this destination. From the Liberty Bell to the steps of Rocky’s famous cry, Philly is an undisputed champion.
Explore Pennsylvania
Even though Pennsylvania is best known for its two biggest cities—Pittsburgh and Philadelphia—the state has more to offer than the bustle of a major city. The Appalachian Mountains run right through the center, giving you plenty of reason to get outdoors and stay there. History can be seen and felt wherever you go, from the German speaking regions of Amish Country to the gorgeous landscapes of Valley Forge. And when you want something sweet, you can always stop by Hersheypark for a candy bar or take a selfie in front of the Haines Shoe House.
