The sixth-largest city in Pennsylvania, Scranton is the geographical and cultural centre of the Lackawanna River Valley. Majority of Scranton’s attractions, such as Anthracite Museum, Steamtown National Historic Site and Electric City Trolley Museum, pay tribute to its heritage as an industrial city and its diverse ethnicity. Not to mention, Scranton is also a popular spot to visit as it hosts La Festa Italiana, a three-day Italian festival since the 1970s. This culture-rich city is also a great place to visit during winter as the Montage Mountain transforms into a popular spot for skiing, snowboarding, tubing and many more. Foodies will also have a ton of amazing restaurants to explore here. And most importantly, the party scene in Scranton is unique, where the streets throng with both tourists and residents!
