Gave 4 stars only because I couldn't rate inside as it wasn't open. The view and overall decision to visit did not disappoint. It was beautiful and would visit if in the area again.

I don't believe they are, but there is a truck there that sells cotton candy, and just the view alone, is worth ur trip!
We were there 2 weeks ago and it said that the pagoda was closed due to remodeling and covid. We just enjoyed the outside and walked around.
You can go there at anytime an personal opinion is at night looks nice lit up with all the light of the city surrounding it
It wont make it buddy
Completed in 1908 at a cost of $50,000, the pagoda was intended to be the hotel/restaurant centerpiece of a luxury resort. When plans for the rest of the resort were abandoned, the 7-story wooden building on 10 acres of land was donated to Reading in 1911. It is now part of the Mount Penn Reserve, 1,595 acres of municipally-owned land. The Pagoda is 28 feet wide, 50 feet long, and 72 feet tall. Perched on the edge of a cliff, 620 feet above the city and 886 feet above sea level, it offers a 30-mile panoramic view of the city and the surrounding countryside. The Pagoda is owned by the City of Reading but is managed and preserved by the Foundation for the Reading Pagoda. It serves as a symbol of the City of Reading. The Pagoda is also the home of Pagoda Skyline, Inc., a non-profit volunteer organization formed in 1969 to help with the restoration and preservation of the Pagoda, the William Penn Memorial Fire Tower and Skyline Drive.
