Hershey, Pennsylvania has so many fun things to do. I had no idea the full amount until I really looked into it. In all honesty, several trips would have to be made to do all the amazing things there are to do. Especially if you really want to take your time. So here are some great things I got to do. Also I will mention some things I want to do next time, since time didn’t permit.
Of course when you visit the Hershey and Harrisburg area of Pennsylvania you would automatically think of chocolate. Visiting everything and anything Hershey is probably on the top of your list. However there are many other things to see and do in the area. One of them is visiting the Indian Echo Caverns. They aren’t too far from Hershey and it is definitely worth the visit.
While visiting the Hershey & Harrisburg area of Pennsylvania we stayed at Best Western Premier The Central Hotel & Conference Center. Set in an area made up of history, nature, and chocolate, you really can’t go wrong. It was a nice choice for many reasons.
Once I heard about Terror Behind The Walls at the Eastern State Penitentiary in Philly, I knew I wanted to go. It looked pretty cool. What was even more intriguing to me was that this haunted attraction would take place inside this old prison. A prison that is said to be haunted! So of course to have some Halloween fun my friend and I went.
I have been to Philly a handful of times. Most times finding something new and different to do, see, and eat. This time was no different. I was a little too tired, otherwise my day of exploring would have been longer. Getting to Philadelphia from New York was quick and relativity easy. It served as a nice day trip and my friends and I had fun.
I have been to Philly a few times prior, but due to different circumstances I was never able to really explore the city. Due to my lack of exploring I really wanted to head back and seize that opportunity. For my birthday weekend I finally got to do just that. Taking a 2 hour road trip from New York I made spending a weekend in Philadelphia happen.
Philadelphia is home to many notable things, The Rocky Stairs, The Liberty Bell, and so many other historical places and things. One extremely notable thing is the Philly Cheesesteak. Visiting and not eating on is sinful and you honestly would be missing out! While many people would make certain suggestions to eat at Geno’s and other infamous spots, the place that you really need to go for a delicious cheesesteak is Jim’s Steaks and that is exactly where I headed!
