You won’t believe this, but there’s actually a PAGODA in Pennsylvania. Since 1908, this Japanese-style pagoda has sat on a cliffside overlooking the town of Reading. Initially built as a luxury resort to cover a hole made from a stone quarry, today, the pagoda is a popular tourist attraction. Enjoy views of reading from the balcony and, at night, see the structure light up in a twinkle of red LED lights.

If you love spelunking, head to Laurel Caverns near Farmington! Home to four miles of connected underground passages, these caverns form the largest cave site in the state. Approximately 1,200 feet of the cavern is illuminated with colorful neon lights, creating an unexpectedly fun and trippy atmosphere. For more daring travelers, the spelunking program will take you down more than 500 feet into the cave network’s most popular attractions like the Bat Room and the Petite Falls.

If you love Big Macs, this museum is for you! Tucked within a Mickey D’s in North Huntingdon, the Big Mac Museum occupies a small section of the restaurant and recounts the history of the burger, which was first created in nearby Pittsburgh. Follow the Big Mac’s journey from its unveiling in 1967 to the 25th anniversary of the sandwich in 1992, and take a pic with the mammoth Big Mac statue in the PlayPlace!

The Pizza Brain in Philadelphia serves up a Guinness World Record-holding collection of cheesy, pizza-related artifacts on top of their anything-but-regular pizza menu.

Enjoy a slice of thin-crust pizza featuring quirky, last-century names like Henrietta Blanche and Buffy Ernst.

This may be the only attraction in Pennsylvania where you’re asked to bring your own hammer. Ringing Rocks Park in Bucks County is home to 10-foot-tall piles of igneous rock that produce ringing sounds when struck with a hard object. The bell-like chimes of the boulders vary, so spend time hammering different stones to make rock-based harmonies and melodies! When you’re done testing tones, hike the trails to the nearby waterfall for a picnic!

In Kittanning, Sam the Giant Cowboy awaits your visit with a smug grin and a hamburger larger than the average human. The genial 30-foot fiberglass statue was erected outside the Cadet Restaurant in the early 60s and survived a run-in with an unfortunate Ford Bronco in 1990, becoming a local icon in the process. Snap a selfie with Sam and head into Cadet for its famous roast beef sandwich!
