==Amish tourism== | |||
Berlin is in the heart of Ohio's largest ] community. Located in Eastern ], the last twenty years has seen Berlin grow from a small Amish farm town to the center of Amish tourism in Ohio. Much of the town's main street and nearby side streets have been transformed into shops catering to visitors who travel from all over Ohio and ] to see and buy Amish crafts, quilts, candels, toys, cheese and other baked goods. This has done much to transform quiet Berlin into a busy tourist attraction, and the town has suffered somewhat from the impact of the tourism. Much of the slow, quiet lifestyle that first attracted visitors to Berlin has been lost, as tour buses fill the town with tourists six days a week (the shops are closed on Sundays), but a short drive outside Berlin will soon take visitors back to the rolling hills and Amish farms that first drew them there. | |||
