UmikoI think we have to make a detour for Franklin and Bethlehem next time we go to Pennsylvania from Texas. All this time we only drove by the outskirt of the cities. Mystic and Woodstock sound interesting, too. We’ve been there in the summer, so I have no doubt these cities look incredible during the holiday season.
ReneeThese destinations all sound wonderfully festive. I’d especially like to stay on the east coast and do NYC, Connecticut. How cute is Bethlehem, that would be beautiful to take a nighttime carriage ride to see the lights.
NataschaI am a big fan of light-ups and I am too lazy to decorate my own home. That is why I prefer christmas holiday destinations. I can imagine that a lot of American cities put a great effort in their light-up and I would love to see this one day.
BhushaAs someone who loved White Christmas, Utah would be my top pick. Of course, you cannot go wrong with NYC. Oldest Inn in USA? Now, that’s super interesting and my kinda place. Home to Polar Express? Well, now I’m intrigued about it as well. I really wouldn’t want to miss the Lantern light tour at Connecticut. It is difficult to pick one!!!
Ambica GulatiI like all these 15 destinations. But I would surely lke to do Utah and Colorado. And the Rhinebeck sounds unmissable. But I guess, it will be for 2023 Christmas now!
JanLove this list! I would love to visit Philadelphia and Woodstock during festive seasons. Lights and decorations bring cheer and happiness. It’s a tough job to pick one out the many listed as the best. 🙂
ClariceWow! These are great destinations. I am not really familiar with Darby but we’d love to learn more and explore the area. Snowshoeing and horseback riding sounds really exciting and fun.
SaurabhI was in Park City and NYC in mid and late January a few years ago, and the atmosphere was truly vibrant. Would like to revisit the cities during Christmas and New Year’s Eve.
