Kings and Queens of Prussia


Just before visiting my friend in East Greenville, I decided to swing by the King of Prussia area to visit my friend Kelly who lives there. She also went to York with me, before transferring out to go back home to finish undergraduate studies. It was a very quiet little area, but still worth mentioning on here.

My friend lives in a small town called Phoenixville, about 10 minutes from Valley Forge National Park in about 15 minutes from King of Prussia Mall. Valley Forge is a very nice Historic Park, and although I got to drive by it, it was dark out, so I didn't really get to set foot inside the park. It was quite a phenomenal location to visit, as there are lots of trails to hike inside the park and statues and memorials and whatnot. Visiting my friend this summer and getting to swim in her pool with one of her friends was an incredible gift. And now for the main event, King of Prussia.

King of Prussia at the time that I visited it was the second largest strip mall in America. Plans were released to expand the mall completely by 2020, effectively making it the largest mall in America. It has a plethora of stores between three floors, spans 300 yards, and overall is a good place to spend an afternoon and burn some daylight. Many patrons from far and wide to travel to this area to see what this part of Pennsylvania is like, as there's also hotels and lavish casinos nearby.

When I stepped inside the mall for the first time to visit my friend, I walked to the nearest Starbucks, which was bigger than most stand alone stores that I visited. There were a few other stores Incorporated clothing, pop culture, and other things into their store. It is a good place to spend money and find any sort of store imaginable, and I noticed this almost immediately. I met up with my friend and her friend Kim, and we went for a little walk around the mall. We went to Wegmans after that, which was the first Wegmans that I've ever been to. My initial impression? The stores are much bigger out here on the east coast of Pennsylvania.

Although I personally don't spend a whole lot of time in malls because I'm more interested in geographical destinations, you can plainly see that this mall has a lot to offer everybody. I also try to conserve my money as much as possible, so I didn't spend a whole lot of time browsing the stores. No matter what you're into, you can always get exercise and simultaneously shop at King of Prussia.
