Among Reading’s many vibrant attractions are GoggleWorks Center for the Arts, Reading Public Museum, Mid-Atlantic Air Museum, the Pagoda, and FirstEnergy Stadium—home of the minor-league Reading Fightin Phils. Opportunities for outdoor adventure abound, with a host of scenic parks and more than 125 miles of biking and hiking trails in Greater Reading.
