New Jersey is home to many well-known destinations, including Asbury Park, Princeton, Hoboken, and Atlantic City.

The Garden State also has plenty of towns a little more off the beaten path, offering a perfect escape for those looking to explore beyond some of the more popular hotspots.

If you guessed, Allentown, you are correct!

I recently met up with some friends at a perfect gathering spot, The Moth Coffeehouse, a charming coffee shop located right in the heart of town.

Here’s what WorldAtlas had to say about Allentown:

The historic Old Mill is a focal point for community events and also houses a variety of small shops and boutiques, perfect for finding unique gifts or local crafts. Additionally, Conines Millpond Park offers peaceful walking trails and fishing spots, ideal for a relaxing day outdoors.

If you’re looking for a place to visit this winter, I recommend putting Allentown on your list.
