2 Best Sights in Pennsylvania Dutch Country, Pennsylvania

The seasonal Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire, on the grounds of the Mount Hope Estate and Winery, transforms the winery into an extensive 16th-century English village ruled by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth I. The lively action includes street performers, human chess matches, jousting and fencing tournaments, knighthood ceremonies, street performances, craft demonstrations, battling pirates, jesters, medieval food, and Shakespearean plays performed on outdoor stages. Fun for all ages, but definitely more A Kid in King Arthur's Court than Game of Thrones.

To say that Pennsylvania wineries don't enjoy the greatest reputation would be a gross understatement. Jan and Kimberly Waltz coined the slogan "the wines that will change your mind," and there's actually a good chance they will. They offer local cheese and chocolate in the tasting room, but the refreshing sauvignon blanc or jammy merlot stand on their own.
