Pennsylvania: The Keystone State

   The Keystone State, anchored at each end by metro areas of Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, offers an extraordinary variety of travel destinations. Although noted for its scenic farms, sweeping national forests, historic railroads, and picturesque covered bridges, you will find Pennsylvania is much more. Its waterways, lakes and waterfalls entertain the water lovers, while miles of mountains and woodland trails provide for a haven for hikers, equestrians and backcountry adventures. Gettysburg National Military Park intriques the Civil War buff and the Revolutionary War era's Valley Forge, the Liberty Bell Center and Independence Hall remind us all of the historic influences of Pennsylvania as America’s Constitution Center.
