What's there to do here?hardmode: no philly
>>2824568What’s their to do in any state that’s not ny
>>2824575New York feels crowded and restrictive. Pennsylvania is more relaxed. I visited NYC as a kid a couple times and I don't feel any particular urge to return.
Meth, oxycontin, fentanyl, trying not to get murdered because "you don't look like you're from around here boah", mining coal, having sexual relations with your siblings, parents, and children, squealing like a pig, drinking moonshine, losing your teeth
>>2824579PA is not a southern state. Bad bait.
>>2824581Culturally, the region between Altoona and Harrisburg has more in common with northwestern Georgia than with the Philadelphia metro area.
>>2824585Did you know Altoona has wood fired pizza on offer?
>>2824568If you have a car, some world tier mountain fun and sceneryIf you aren't able to drive, depression and expensive alcohol
>>2824587well um yeah, I am assuming you have a car here
>>2824588You would be suprised the amount of anons who travel and have no drivers license
>>2824568Hardmode would be going to Philly.Alright I actually like Philly although a large portion of it is a dump. To answer your question the Frank Lloyd Wright Falling Water house is an actual masterpiece that even the most cynical would appreciate it.That house is also semi-close to Pittsburgh which is the superior Pennsylvania city.
>>2824577nyc sucks before you turn 21. you never experienced the things you go to nyc for
>>2824568I'm from New Castle. Come here and eat great Lebanese food, pizza and fries on salad, our specialtyAlso the central mountains are very nice. Presque Isle in Erie is worth seeing. Pittsburgh has all the amenities of a big city. I had fun checking out the allegheny cemetary, eating eastern european and asian food and checking out the old architecture
>>2824637>the only thing in erie to see is the lakedamning, really
>>2824581Pennsylvanian hillbillies live in real homes, not dilapidated trailers. The Pennsylvania woods are less wealthy and culturally refined as the farm country of upstate New York, but compared to West Virginia, rural Pennsylvanians are very neat and disciplined people.>>2824587Amtrak's Pennsylvanian has daily service between NYC and Pittsburgh. You could visit quite a few Pennsylvanian towns that way. BTW don't visit Pennsylvania in winter. Everything is brown and gray and damp and cold and miserable.

>>2824568Hunt, fish, use fent.
>>2824637>Pittsburgh has all the amenities of a big city. Seems like it, but all of those amenities are in the suburbs. Downtown Pittsburgh is ass, one of the most disappointing downtowns I've visited.
>>2824717Downtown Pittsburgh has a large park, football stadium, baseball stadium, hockey stadium, theaters. Heinz history museum. I could go on and on.
>>2824951Which were all fine. But the restaurant scene was unremarkable and there weren't a lot of night life options. Also the public transportation infrastructure was trash.
>>2825137there's a lot of potential, unrealized
>>2824597>Frank Lloyd Wright Falling Water house is an actual masterpiece that even the most cynical would appreciate it.The house is empty and while it does have a good view at the balcony the inside of the house is nothing special. So it is kind of like this place that looks great from the outside, but they didn't care about the inside. I was disappointed.
>>2825202>The house is emptyI was literally just there a few weeks agoThe house is fully decorated with gorgeous vintage furniture.
>>2824568Cherry Springs State Park (one of the darkest spots on the east coast), great for stargazing.Any of the Elk Country forests - Huge swaths bigger than most states full of pristine forest and wild elk populations,
>>2825212>Cherry Springs State Parkwhy do people always say thatthere's nothing fucking thereI mean, don't get me wrong the roadside overlooks on 44 are nice but it's kinda meh as a park. Ridge rd in elk (county?) has some really nice views (norcross vista) but I think most of the hiking trails are mega overgrown and don't really lead anywhere.
>>2824652>the only thing in Colorado to see is the mountains wahFuck off>>2824717Lawrenceville is cool. There's also tons of stuff downtown. Sorry it's not Manhattan

>>2825258>Lawrenceville is cool. There's also tons of stuff downtown. Sorry it's not ManhattanI can tell downtown has been hollowed out over the decades. Most of the retail and storefronts are catered towards day traffic, few cater to evening clienteles. In fact, what was noticeable in downtown during the evenings was how empty and quite the streets were. The city was hit hard by suburbanization, there's more stuff going on in the suburbs than the downtown core. Shit, there's more stuff going on for evening entertainment in the backwater shithole that I live in than in downtown Pittsburgh.
aren't the Appalachian mountains crazy beautiful? or are they somehow not hike friendly?
>>2825431>or are they somehow not hike friendly?depends where you go + what you meanin general PA dirt roads are less terrifying + unkempt vs a place like WV, but a lot of fun hikes are pretty hard to get to and some of the hikes involve an insane level of steep (descend 400 ft in a quarter mile to chimney rock)half dome of pa is legendary hard if you want an example - pine creek is the steepest major waterway there's also rocksylvania - the ridge and valley closer to the SE, its generally easier to access but good luck on your feet cuz its point fucking rocks and scree fields you have to walk through I have lots of recommendations for the plateau though if you are interested...
