Review:
Also known as Pennsylvania Dutch Country, Lancaster has endless things for visitors to see and do. Life moves at a slower pace here, and plenty of visitors enjoy simply driving around the country roads to admire the wooden covered bridges, the rolling green fields, and the charming farmhouses with colorful quilts hung outside to dry. You can also visit Dutch Wonderland, Amish Farm and House, Mennonite Life Information Center, or hop aboard the Strasburg Railroad for a 45-minute ride through the countryside. Lancaster is a 1 hr 45 min (81.3 miles via US-1 S) drive from Philadelphia .
