Lancaster

To many people, Lancaster is Dutch Country---Amish buggies, quilts, and farms as far as the eye can see. But Lancaster is much more than that. Yes, our traditional attractions are very popular, and rightfully so. But we bet you didn't know that our historic Red Rose City was once the capital of the American colonies, or that our local breweries produce some of the best beer you'll ever taste. And Gallery Row and the 300 block of North Queen Street offer some of the best shopping you'll find anywhere. There are so many surprises in Lancaster that it would take years to discover them all! Explore our museums, shop our farm markets, and drive along winding roads through breathtaking scenery. Nearby villages offer a refreshing mix of old and new; you'll never have the same experience twice.
