Modern visitors find a particular peace while visiting this community, whose members advocated a simple life during its 19th-century heyday. Today, the restored buildings and expansive grounds provide a glimpse of Shaker life, from clean-lined design to clever methods of doing household work. At the National Historic Landmark, visitors can view gardens, buildings, domestic goods and interiors, and watch various crafts being practiced. A riverboat ride, miles of trails, a restaurant, and guest accommodations are available as well. Twenty-five miles from Lexington.
