We stopped late in the day on a Sunday as we were passing by. It was only an hour and a half before closing but still left us plenty of time to see everything. We saw the last part of the reptile show which was included in admission. There is a aviary that has hundreds of colorful parakeets that will fly by you. For a dollar or two they will give you a popsicle stick with bird food attached. The kids loved that they would fly over and land on it. My favorite part was the Robotic Dinosaurs. They moved, squirted water and made noise. They have several reptiles/Snakes that I have never seen in person before. Very cool place!

Campus has so much charm and appeal with its Georgian buildings and beautifully landscaped grounds. All the new buildings have kept with the old architecture on the outside adding to its appeal. Students are friendly and willing to help strangers. The buildings are spread out so be prepared to walk the hills.

This is one of my favorite places to go to photograph sunsets. I used to fish from shore there, but it seems like the water level kept getting lower.

Well worth a visit! A hidden gem in the town of Northumberland. The volunteer staff is knowledgeable and friendly and make you feel like family. The house tour is informative and well worth the small admission charge. The small gift shop has great items to help remember your visit. Highly recommend a visit to learn more about Joseph Priestley and his family and how his discoveries changed our nation. (Helpful tip when visiting: cash or check only for admission and gift shop items).

There is two floors to this antique store. There is a lot to go through but it is organized chaos so to speak. The owner has it organized into themes, like wedding stuff, baby stuff, old books, salt & pepper shakers, etc. Lots of variety. Good selection of different items.
There is no public bathroom so go to the restroom across the street before shopping.

The university has done a great job is utilising this former cinema to support its programmes while also preserving the heritage of a vintage building. The interior decor is impressive, the seating is comfortable and the acoustics excellent. Well done Bucknell.

Stopped in with some time to kill on a warm summer day and were very pleased. The park is very quiet, has many areas to relax and enjoy the view as well as the breeze that is afforded by being so high up. The restroom facilities are decent, and parking is ample. This really was a nice find.

Reviewed By Carol W - Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania
Our group visited Purity Candy following a trip to Clyde Peeling's Reptile Land. The chocolate dinosaurs were a hit, but we left with a chocolate motorcycle for each boy (ages 3, 4 and 5) as well. The candy was delicious! I was disappointed that there was not a public restroom on site. Perhaps we'll revisit in December to watch a candy cane making demonstration.
9. Lewisburg Farmers Market

Reviewed By pennstatetraveler - central pennsylvania
Loved the roomy indoor setting on a rainy, windy day. Wonderful orchard offerings. We liked the effort by Schlegel’s to limit pesticides in/on their products. Delicious applesauce. Huge variety of apples. Lots of bakery booths, vegetable stands, some starter plants, many fresh meat counters, even seafood. Some other sections with soaps, collectibles.... worth a visit.
10. Four Friends Vinyard & Winery
Overall Ratings
3.5 based on 14 reviews
Reviewed By Alexis W - New Columbia, Pennsylvania
I will NEVER recommend Four Friends to family, friends, acquaintances or soon-to-be-brides. I had the worst experience here every. Tina was very unfriendly and rude. She had no problem yelling at me and my business partners. NEVER again will I go here or recommend business her way. She is ungrateful and turned a lot of clientele away from her sour attitude.
