Welcome to Lancaster, Pennsylvania

Welcome to Lancaster, Pennsylvania

Best known as being the heart of Amish country, Lancaster isn't just made up of rural farmland. Regional museums of art and history, semi-professional sports teams and breweries all call the town home. Still, the Amish way of life is what attracts most visitors to the city, where re-created villages and buggy rides give a taste of a wildly different way of life.
