Local community named one of America’s prettiest

NEW YORK – Leavenworth is getting some national attention, and not because of the Eagle Fire.

Forbes named the Bavarian-themed village one of “America’s Prettiest Towns.” Coming in at 12th, it’s described as “a favorite weekend getaway for Seattleites.” It offers great shopping, dining and is a hub for some of the best outdoor recreation in the Northwest.

New Iberia, Louisiana was number one on the list.
