Make the Most of Your Wilkes-Barre Stay

Cultural heritage and architecture

Wilkes-Barre reveals its prosperous past through remarkable architecture that few associate with a mid-sized Pennsylvania city. The River Street Historic District preserves over 200 buildings from the coal baron era, showcasing High Victorian Gothic and Beaux Arts designs. The Market Street Bridge, designed by Carrère and Hastings—the same firm behind the New York Public Library—welcomes visitors with monumental limestone eagles. The F.M. Kirby Center anchors Public Square as an Art Deco masterpiece hosting Broadway tours and concerts, while the Luzerne County Courthouse's marble-and-gold-leaf rotunda stands as one of Pennsylvania's most striking civic spaces.

Dining and entertainment

The city's culinary scene reflects its transformation from industrial hub to modern destination. The Stegmaier Mansion transforms a Victorian brewing estate into an elegant dining experience, while Bank+Vine operates within a repurposed historic bank. Cork Bar & Restaurant offers contemporary American cuisine appealing to business travelers and locals alike. Mohegan Pennsylvania provides gaming, live harness racing, a convention center, and upscale dining including Ruth's Chris Steak House.

Natural escapes and regional access

Seven Tubs Nature Area offers 500 acres of glacial formations and hiking trails just beyond downtown. Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport sits 15 minutes away with direct connections to major hubs, while the city serves as a base for exploring the Pocono Mountains, Ricketts Glen's waterfalls, and Jim Thorpe—all within an hour's drive.
