Lancaster

Lancaster lies along the Conestoga River in southeastern Pennsylvania, where the city meets the rolling farm country of Lancaster County. Its downtown is anchored by Central Market, a public market operating since 1730 and widely recognized as the United States’ oldest continuously operating farmers’ market. Red-brick blocks, galleries and restaurants give the centre an urban counterpoint to the surrounding Amish and Mennonite countryside, whose farm stands and covered bridges are closely associated with the county. Lancaster also briefly served as the national capital for one day in 1777, when the Continental Congress met here during the Revolutionary War.
