Roadside America Miniature Village - Shartlesville, PA

This may be the world's largest miniature village. The exhibit takes up over 8,000 square feet, filling an area the size of a small gymnasium. A model train runs throughout the display but what is remarkable are the thousands of hand-made model buildings - homes, stores, churches, stables, cabins, factories, barns, mills, gas stations, movie theatres and more.

Roadside America also has meticulously detailed railroad yards, farms, orchards, parks, a baseball field, a zoo, and about a hundred hand-made carriages.

Every 30 minutes the daylight turns to night to show off the many lighted buildings and streetlights.
