This is one of the only modern parks that I still enjoy visiting!  It started as a picnic grove in 1898 and still contains two of the original John Miller coasters - The Jack Rabbit (1920) and The Racer (1927).  The character of Kennywood still resembles the trolley park it started as while mixing with the modern elements.  Several years ago, a section entitled "Lost Kennywood" was added to commemorate the parks that had fallen to time, and the entrance arch is a copy of the entrance to the long-gone Luna Park in Pittsburgh.  This park is well worth a summer trip.
