Hershey, Pennsylvania
Hershey is the town that chocolate built. Milton
Hershey, inventor of the
chocolate bar, created the town to house and entertain Hershey
employees.
It's rather thematic: The street lamps, for instance, are
shaped like
Hershey's Kisses. (Hershey and his wife were philanthropists
of the first
order: When she died, he gave much of his fortune to the orphanage
they had
founded. Today, the orphanage -- the Milton Hershey School
-- still owns a
controlling interest in Hershey Foods and all of HERCO, the
separate nonfood
division of Hershey.)
It's great fun to tour Hershey Chocolate World,
a simulation of a chocolate
factory. Other attractions with the Hershey moniker include
the Hershey
Museum (depicting the life of Milton Hershey, the development
of the town
and local history of the area), Hersheypark (a theme park
with 50
attractions and rides) and Hershey Gardens (across from the
elegant Hershey
Hotel). The ZooAmerica North American Wildlife Park is also
in town.
Probably the best way to see Hershey is to take one of the
short bus tours
that are offered from Hershey Chocolate World. Afterward,
browse the shops
where you'll find anything and everything that's Hershey-related.
