Places to Visit Near Lancaster
Several top attractions associated with Lancaster are actually located in the nearby town of Ronks. This small farming community certainly holds a lot of tourist appeal, although there are some truly grand and iconic spots worth checking out.
Owing to its large Amish population (and visitors' never-ending interest in the Amish lifestyle), many top attractions have a great deal of old-world charm. The Amish Village, for example, is easily accessible but feels like its own special world, complete with a blacksmith shop, a one-room schoolhouse, and a guided farmhouse tour. Historic architecture takes front and center at the Old Windmill Farm, where a variety of hands-on activities introduce visitors to the Amish lifestyle.
Ronks is home to the acclaimed Sight & Sound Theater, where the most iconic Bible stories are brought to life through the power of live performances. Ideal for anyone who seeks a faith-based, and larger-than-life, experience, Sight & Sound is family-friendly but also perfect for an adult-only getaway. Get ready for live music, evocative storytelling, animal appearances, and the best costuming and set design in the entire state.
In addition to Sight & Sound, Ronks boasts plenty of appealing attractions that encourage vacationers to get outside and explore. Many of these experiences are wholesome and charming, although shopping opportunities also abound. As you plan a fun day in Ronks, be sure to check out these favorites:
- Cherry Crest Adventure Farm

- Dienner's Country Restaurant
- Country Loft Antiques
