A Shipshewana Christmas
To the Heart of Amish County, Indiana.
Shipshewana is magical at Christmas…
The entire small town of Shipshewana is lit up with beautiful Christmas lights during the holidays and looks like something straight out of a Hallmark Christmas movie! The Christmas celebrations here truly showcase the town’s small-town charm and kind-hearted people, as well as its bright and sparkling Yuletide joy.
