Autumn is a beautiful time to visit Pennsylvania festivals in the northeastern region of the state with the pretty fall foliage colors.
If you’ve never been to Pennsylvania in the autumn, make this your year to plan a vacation here.
Pictures can’t do the beautiful fall foliage justice, you need to see the leaves in person.
Enjoy a balloon fest, sample a variety of foods, listen to music or browse for a holiday craft or gift item.
The kids will be kept busy with fun activities such as face painting and making colored sand art in jars.
