While Disney may be the happiest place on Earth, Hershey Park is definitely the "sweetest place on Earth"! From the classic, but fun theme park style, to the workers' bright personalities this place is truly amazing. The park has rides fit for little kids to adults. From the little ladybug ride, the claw, to a better than average swinging pirate ship this place is for everyone. My favorite ride is the Reese's Challenge. This is an arcade type shooting ride. You go in your cart which is either peanut butter or chocolate and you aim for the targets. The team (peanut butter or chocolate) with the most points win. Another great ride is the bumper cars. At the time I was there, the roller coasters were down for the winter.  They looked great and I want to go back to try them.  

Beside all the rides, there are shows (some depend on the season) like the seal show. The shows at Christmas time are fun and festive. Also, at Christmas it is great to go at night since the park is lit up with Christmas lights. There is also a zoo called ZooAmerica with a great nocturnal animal exhibit. The best thing here of course is the candy. That is how Hershey got its start.  If you want to learn about Hershey's history, then stop and ride the chocolate ride in Chocolate World which is just outside the park. I had a great trip here and you would too. I would rate this 9/10.
