Travel Guide

Great look out spot & hiking trails!
My alma mater! Visiting the college during Homecoming a few years ago (in October) and we had an early snowstorm! Jacob Albright didn't seem to care about the weather though.
Pagoda on top of Reading, Pennsylvania.
Pogado was intended to be the hotel/restaurant centerpiece of a luxury resort. Built in 1908.. Stunning in its beauty.. It hold an 18 century Japanese Bell in its tower,, the structure was designed from a postcar of the Philippines..
From readingpagoda.com: 'Commissioned in 1906 at a cost of $50,000 by William A. Witman, Sr. to cover his stone quarry, the Pagoda was completed in 1908. It was orginally intended to be a luxury resort atop Mt. Penn, but due to the bank foreclosure and the denial of a liquor license, Witman never opened the Pagoda. By 1910 the Pagoda and surrounding 10 acres were deeded to local business owner, Jonathon Mould and his wife, Julia (Bell). On April 21, 1911 they "sold" the Pagoda to the City of Reading for the sum of $1. Since then the Pagoda has been owned, loved and cared for by the citizens and City of Reading.' Haha! $1
