The Amish Tour

Saturday, July 30th


We got up early for the Amish tour in the morning. On the way to the destination, we all were attracted by the beautiful scenery, taking photos. There were some houses in the endless green grass. Birds or crows always could be seen. Everything seems so harmonious.

Amish people live in a traditional life. They do not use electricity, cars and technologies. So we can see buggies passed by, which is kind of transportation they use and people work hard in their farms. The guide told us that Amish clothing is characteristic, and men and women wear different clothing, so we can know some information from the clothing.

At last, we visited an Amish house which is particular for tourist visit. So we can know more about the family life of Amish. What impress me deeply are Amish like putting tables near the windows for full use of light, and they like using blue curtains.
