Nawab and I: Intercourse, Pa.

With towns name Bird in Hand, Paradise, and Intercourse, Lancaster County in Pennsylvania has added attraction for tourism. What attracts people is not the name but the Pennsylvania Dutch. They are descendants of German Amish and Mennonite immigrants here. If you have seen Harrison Ford's Witness (1985) you would have a pretty good idea of how the Amish live.

It is off Route 30 [map link] and just celebrated its 255th Anniversary.
