Johnstown Travel Guide: 59 reviews and 111 photos

Johnstown is a small town in the western Pennsylvanian region, once famous for its booming steel industry. Since the mills have closed up, its become a rather sleepy town. Many of the family owned restaurants and stores in the downtown area have closed up, due to competition from the malls and chain stores in the surrounding areas. Despite this, it is a town with a rich history, along with many treasures, you just have to take the time to find them.
