Overview
Nestled along Philadelphia’s western Main Line suburbs, Villanova offers easy access
to neighboring towns such as Wayne, Rosemont, Bryn Mawr, Ardmore, Valley Forge,
and King of Prussia. In the immediate area, shopping and dining options are plentiful
along Lancaster Pike (U.S. Route 30), the first highway in America. These quaint areas
of Pennsylvania are full of specialty stores, family-owned restaurants, and, of course,
authentic Philly cheese steaks.
Center City Philadelphia, 15 miles from Villanova, is also easily accessible via a
30-minute train ride on the SEPTA R5 regional rail line. With a station located on the
Villanova campus, it’s easy to board a train bound for Suburban Station in the heart
of Downtown Philly which offers museums, theater, ballet, historic tours, shopping,
eclectic dining, professional sporting events, and more. Visit www.gophila.com to
