The City of Bethlehem has a lot to offer. If you are from out-of-town, we recommend getting to know Bethlehem which is also known as “The Christmas City”.

Historic Bethlehem is home to Bethlehem’s Main Street which is filled with quaint shops and eateries. Bethlehem’s Main Street was honored as America’s Best Main Street in the 2025 USA Today Readers’ Choice Awards. This area is rich in history as it is lined with original buildings from the 18th century that were first settled by the Moravian community.

Not far from the Historic Moravian District is the SouthSide Arts District. This area is home to the SteelStacks which are the iconic 250-foot tall structures you can’t miss when driving through Bethlehem. These structures are actually a series of five blast furnaces that are now the ruins of former Bethlehem Steel- an iron factory that, for decades, made iron that helped create the Golden Gate Bridge, the Empire State Building, and many other national landmarks. The SteelStacks are now known as the largest revitalized brownfield in the country. While exploring the SouthSide Arts District, we recommend checking out the Hoover-Mason Trestle to get up close to the former blast furnaces. The trestle is an elevated park and pedestrian walkway that is 1,650 feet in length and includes historical information about Bethlehem Steel. Also on the SouthSide is Wind Creek Bethlehem which offers a casino, an outlet mall, a spa, and many dining options.

Not far away from Bethlehem, is another area of the Lehigh Valley known as Easton. Easton offers a cute downtown area with a variety of shops and restaurants. If you are a bacon lover, the PA Bacon Fest will be hosted in the City of Easton November 1st and 2nd from 10am-5pm. This two-day festival serves up delicious food, live music, family-friendly activities, cooking demos and every sort of bacon treat you can imagine.

Also in Easton is the Crayola Experience which is a larger-than-life attraction packed with hands-on activities all inspired by Crayola's latest and greatest products and technologies. You can name and wrap your very own Crayola crayon, turn yourself into a coloring page, make melted wax souvenirs and more!
