What to do and see in Allentown, Pennsylvania (PA): The Best Sights & Landmarks

June 11, 2021 Claudia Navarrete

Allentown, is the largest of the three Pennsylvania cities that make up the Lehigh Valley. Formerly an industrial hub, Allentown is probably most well known as the subject of the eponymous Billy Joel song. The long history of Allentown has left it with an impressive architectural heritage that includes buildings such as the neo-Roman Art Museum, which contains a reconstructed room designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. The city is also home to the Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom amusement park.

We enjoyed our very first American League hockey game between the Lehigh Valley Phantoms and Hershey Bears. Lively atmosphere, clean facility and do much to see and do. Terrific atmosphere and activities & contests throughout the game. Only complaint was the “smoke show” prior to puck drop. Not necessary. But that’s a minor concern. Great value and lots of fun.
