Pennsylvania
There's something very serene and simple about rural Pennsylvania. Roads are dominated by winding hills and horse and buggy, big and beautiful barns dominate the countryside, and the horns of trains ring through tranquil blue skies. Amish communities set the landscape back a good three hundred years, and country life has never felt sweeter than it does here. There may not be much to it- but the break from modernity is well worth it.

TRAINS
The Best Of Amish Country-
Rail
Strasburg Rail runs right through Lancaster, and who can resist old trains?
Listen to the charming bells and whistles, the glorious horns, and clanking along the tracks as you smell old wood, antique cabins, and smoke.
Farmland
Miles upon miles of antiquated farmland, with the most dedicated men and women tending to them. There's cows, corn, barns, and by God, horse and buggy everywhere.
Food
Fresh farm ingredients means the best food around- and the best of the best is found at Hershey Farms. Imagine breakfast buffets like no other, with an insane variety of options all around (not to mention the best milk).
Company
The horse and buggies are nice, but the best part about visiting is getting to see family. Trips to my grandmother were incredibly special, and definitely something I miss.
