Pennsylvania has a ton of amazing towns with great history and bustling shops. Some, though, have incredibly appealing main streets that visitors flock to for their fun atmospheres and welcoming residents. Here are the main streets in PA that offer you the most fun.
- Hollidaysburg

- Lititz
Rob Swatski/ Flickr Lititz is famous nationwide as an amazingly charming small town, and thus its main street does not disappoint. With over 50 shops and endless restaurants, Lititz’s main drag is the perfect backdrop for the events and entertainment that you will find there.
- Bethlehem

- Bloomsburg
Doug Kerr/ Flickr Main Street, Bloomsburg is a prime destination no matter your interests: they have comic book stores, art galleries, a coin shop, a tea house, and more.
- DuBois
Doug Kerr/ Flickr DuBois is known for its amazing theatre; you can catch captivating acts at the retro-feeling Paul G. Reitz Theater downtown.
- Wayne
Wikimedia Commons Wayne is one of the towns in the beautiful Mainline area outside of Philadelphia. With theaters, restaurants, bakeries, and comfy hotels, Lancaster Avenue in Wayne has tons of things to keep you occupied.
- Gettysburg

- Oakland, Pittsburgh
Google Maps Pittsburgh is the second biggest city in Pennsylvania, and has numerous neighborhoods with different main streets. Forbes Avenue, however, is the main street that runs through the entire city and in Oakland, in particular, has a variety of attractions…from the famous Primanti Brothers to the Carnegie Museums of Art and Natural History.
