History comes alive in the White Rose City

Bike-Friendly Affordable Historic Architecture Stadium Sports Baseball College

York is a charming small city positioned thirty minutes from Harrisburg and around two hours from Philadelphia. The city’s architecture is one of its most distinctive features, with stunningly preserved buildings dating back to the colonial period.

While York is rich with history, the city has seen major developments even since the turn of the 21st century—Santander Stadium, home of the York Revolution baseball team, is a fairly recent development, and now serves as one of the city’s most popular attractions. Venues like the Appell Center for the Performing Arts and the Capitol Theatre regularly host everything from touring national musicians to rare film screenings.

One of the most popular events of the year is the York Fair, one of the oldest festivals of its kind in the nation. The surrounding countryside offers ample opportunities to get away from it all, even for just an afternoon.
