Features: Philadelphia's famous historic sites as well as the Please Touch Museum (for little ones) and the Eastern State Penitentiary (where Al Capone did time--eerie and great for teens); Hersheypark and Pennsylvania Dutch Country attractions; Pittsburgh Zoo (ranked one of the top three children's zoos in the country); and Benzel's Pretzel Bakery in Altoona where they make about five million pretzels a day.
