9 days in Princeton Itinerary

Best known as the home of Princeton University, the town of Princeton centers around the Ivy League school and its stone, vine-covered buildings.

Change things up with these side-trips from Princeton: Tyler State Park (in Newtown), Peddler's Village (in Lahaska) and Asa Packer Mansion (in Jim Thorpe). And it doesn't end there: stroll around Grounds For Sculpture, experience rural life at Merrymead Farm, try to win big at Mount Airy Casino, and get in on the family fun at Six Flags Great Adventure.
