San Juan Capistrano - Sights in Sand: An American Road Trip
Sights in Sand: An American Road Trip
Details:
Buckle up for a summer-long display of giant sand sculptures! It’s not every day you can travel across the U.S.A. in just an hour or two (by foot, no less!) to experience the five major regions–Northeast, Southeast, Midwest, Southwest, and West–and the fantastic features of each. But this year at Peddler’s Village, we’ve made it possible! In “Sights in Sand: An American Road Trip,” master sand sculptors have recreated the natural wonders, national landmarks, and triumphs of human achievement…in sand. Celebrate America250 with this free display, open to the public through August 31. Every day in June, plan a pit stop at our Village restaurants for regional specialties. In addition to viewing the sand sculptures, visitors can shop at 60 specialty store and boutiques, dine indoors or outside, and enjoy spectacular gardens and landscaping. Families can enjoy Giggleberry Fair, our on-property indoor fun center. Spacious overnight accommodations are available at the Golden Plough Inn. Win an overnight stay package at Peddler’s Village! Every month this summer, you can be entered to win an overnight stay, breakfast for two, a $150 dining gift card, two Mercer Museum passes, and two books: Hidden History of Bucks County and Historic Sites and Bites.
