Cities, Towns and other Attractions

Winken, Blinken and Nod Statue in Wellsboro

The capitol of Pennsylvania is Harrisburg, which has a population of over 50,000. Major cities include Philadelphia and Pittsburg. I've been to both but only Philadelphia recently. Pennsylvania also has a number of very nice smaller towns and lots of friendly people. Take some time to explore these smaller towns and some of the backroads.
