Another good routing from I-78 is exit 54A, US-222 South (Hamilton Boulevard).It is a beautiful farmland drive, especially at sunset.

It is the oldest inland city in the United States. Lancaster has evolved from Pennsylvania's capital back in 1799, before Harrisburg was named the capital in 1812, to a strong and well known city in Pennsylvania. They get around by horse and buggy and they are easily seen, wearing black suits, hats, and bonnets.įounded in 1729, Lancaster was the capital of the United States for a single day on September 27, 1777, as the founding fathers fled the British. They teach in their own schools, and they have their own churches. They are masters of farming and simple living, for they don't use electricity. The Amish are fairly isolated from the rest of the community, but they are acknowledged, respected, and not bothered. This is because the Amish dwell in and around Lancaster's many townships. It is a strong agricultural town with various farmlands, lush vegetation and great produce all over. Lancaster is home to a very diverse group of people.
