Arcola is a lager town, not far from Arthur, and home to the Illinois Amish Interpretative Center. The center offers a brief video on Amish history alongside educational exhibits, and is the starting point for Amish cultural tours. Downtown, Dick’s Pharmacy serves up hand-dipped malts and shakes at an old-fashioned soda fountain. Area attractions include the Aikman Wildlife Adventure. The drive-through animal sanctuary is home to hundreds of exotic animals. Arcola’s Rockome Gardens is a living museum among 15 acres offering buggy rides, craft demonstrations, train rides and a petting zoo.
