Doylestown Makes List Of Most Beautiful Towns In Pennsylvania

Doylestown was chosen by the website The Culture Trip as one of the ten most beautiful towns in Pennsylvania in a recently published list.

The list cites Doylestown’s history, hiking trails, and the Michener Art Museum, among other attractions:

Just 30 miles north of Philadelphia, Doylestown began in 1745 when William Doyle built a tavern on (what is now) the corner of Main Street and State Street. Some of the main visitor attractions in Doylestown are three edifices built by archeologist Henry Chapman Mercer – the Mercer Museum, the Fonthill Castle (pictured above) and the Moravian Pottery and Tile Works building. Doylestown also proffers biking and hiking trails and a Michener art museum, amongst other activities and tourist locations.

From the nearby region, Philadelphia, Lancaster, Kennett Square, and Jim Thorpe also made the cut.
