Historic York Pennsylvania
Welcome to York! While perhaps lesser known than Lancaster to the east and Gettysburg to the west, as a small urban city, it does have a character all its own. In addition to the York Fair, York hosts several unique shows and tournaments each year. York is also known for its factory tours, especially Harley Davidson. Add York’s central location to major East Coast cities, easy access to natural and historic attractions and it’s fledgling arts and cultural district, and you have an accessible and affordable base from which to explore the region.
