The Lands at Hillside Farms

Reviewed By brwneyz777 - Plains, United States

We love going to Hillside Farms with our family. There is so much to see and do and the kids absolutely love it! Whether it be feeding the ducks and llamas, reading to the cows, looking at the other animals, exploring the outdoors, browsing the shops, or eating the delicious ice cream - it’s always a great time. We really love getting milk there too as it’s so fresh. Hillside is a great place to spend a few hours during the spring/summer months. We love it!

Market Street Bridge

Reviewed By UriusT - Vilnius, Lithuania

Affectionally known as the Eagle Bridge to anyone local, the Market Street Bridge is a architectural masterpiece built between 1926-1929, speaking to Wilkes-Bqrre's gilded past as the original Dubai. When coal was king, Wilkes-Barre was one of the most lucrative locations on planet earth to be a owner, much like Dubai and UAE is today. And much like those places, when the natural resources run out or become unprofitable, those communities will disappear and fade, yet the architecture sometimes survives. At least Wilkes-Barre isn't in a desert. Yet, sadly most of the city's architectural heritage was destroyed by short sided locals after the 1972 Agnes flood, and since then by the lowest of the low politicians and developers who have used the term "blight" to describe any old structure that hasn't been renovated recently. "Blight" is a code word for: we want to pay our buddies tax payer money to rip it down and give us a kickback. Thankfully, somehow the Eagle Bridge has escaped the wrecking ball and modernization of the city.

Miners Memorial

Reviewed By GardeningMom42 - Exton, United States

Our family visited the Memorial after receiving word over a year ago that two great-grandfathers were inscribed on the wall. It’s not an attraction that you spend a long time at, but it’s a peaceful place of reflection with multiple educational plaques as well as the wall of honor with individual names of miners.
