Can you feel that? Love is in the air!

Romantic sights like the Walnut Street Bridge have helped place Harrisburg in the top 10 most romantic cities in the country, according to foursquare.

So we went out and asked people, do you think Harrisburg is romantic?

“Yes I do! I think that the walking bridge is one of the most romantic places in Harrisburg,” explained Hannah Kichman.

“Not by any means, No,” countered Matt Hannigan.

“It can be, but it’s up to the people to make it romantic,” believes Rachel Vance.

“Now that you ask the question, yeah!” exclaimed Diane McCormick. “There is beautiful things to look at. I was driving up Front Street to get here remembering how friends, when they come to visit, always say how pretty everything is. There are some romantic restaurants.”

Social media website foursquare, where you check in to places, put out a list of the most romantic cities in the United States for Valentine’s Day.

The list is led by San Francisco, with Harrisburg placing seventh.

“That’s shocking,” Matt Hannigan commented.

“Well I could believe it,” commented Joe Lucia

The answer surprised many people, including national news organizations. Who is foursquare and what was their criteria?”

Foursquare says they dove into more than 3 billion check-ins to find the cities with the most check-ins at romantic places.

“The sights over the river that’s probably the nicest thing,” admitted Jordan Reynolds.

“There are a few romantic spots around here that I could see that fitting into,” Hannigan added.

“There’s a piano bar and I had my senior prom date at that piano bar, so I think that Harrisburg is a very romantic city,” Kichman told us.

“People from all over the place, that just gives it the cosmopolitan romantic affair!” exclaimed Lucia.

“We’ve got the horse and carriage rides, the Pride of the Susquehanna is an intimate date night,” Robert Paquette. “I think it’s definitely not a surprise we’re in the top 10.”

While Harrisburg is on the list, some people say all that matters is who you spend your time with.

“I think it’s anywhere where two couples are sharing a moment,” concluded Hannah Kichman.

If you were wondering what the least romantic city in the US is, it’s in our neighboring state of New Jersey, Trenton.
