Hershey is in the middle of many Amish people. We went to many Amish shops, flea markets, and restaurants in Blue Ball, Intercourse, and Lancaster. There is one Amish restaurant that I remember. It served hundreds family style. The food was so good. It was named the Good and Plenty. Customers came by the bus load.
We went to a historic pretzel factory in Lititz. See a previous blog here.
Factory discount stores were new in those days. There was a huge cluster of them in Reading. We made several trips there. I see that now they are in Hershey. It was 2 hours one way to Reading.
We were disappointed in the Hershey Factory Tour. They had been discontinued and Hershey gave you a kinda Disney Land ride through a make believe factory.
Hershey had unique street lights.
Hershey had a large and interesting museum. It was about Hershey and local history. We enjoyed it.
