Harrisburg

Harrisburg, Pennsylvania’s capital, is a historic community with 18th- & 19th-century buildings, beautiful views of Susquehanna River, as well as a vacation’s worth of activities. You might spend an entire day viewing the city’s focal point and examining creative side of state administration via the artwork displayed around the complex.

The activities that take place on and near the Susquehanna River are some of the most popular attractions for visitors in Harrisburg, ranging from bicycling along  Capital Area Greenbelt and kayaking to a riverboat cruise or a day of leisure activities at City Island Complex.

Harrisburg is steeped in history, which is why visiting places like National Civil War Museum is essential if you want to leave with a positive impression of the city. Many visitors to Harrisburg take a short journey east to experience the attractions of Hershey for a day or two in order to benefit of state capital’s chocolate-inspired neighbour.

Those who spend week in Harrisburg or visit for a weekend will understand why the sights here are among Pennsylvania’s top attractions. A walk through the historic Broad Street Market to shop from local merchants or a trip on  Susquehanna Riverboat Cruise will give you a genuine taste of local culture.
