Indiana

Indiana is divided into six tourism regions: North, Central, East, West, South Central, and South. Each region offers a unique Indiana experience.

The North region features Amish Country, home of the third largest Amish settlement in the US. Trademarks include homemade food, handcrafted products, and black buggies. The Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore along Lake Michigan is perfect for fun in the sun.

In the Central region, Indianapolis shines as a Midwestern city where arts and culture, professional sporting events, restaurants, and shopping are all within walking distance or a short drive.

Parke County in the West region is a great place to tour historic covered bridges. A day at Indiana Beach in Monticello has amusement rides and water slides for all ages.

Indiana’s East region includes Fort Wayne, where families can enjoy one of the top zoos in the country. Antique shoppers will want to visit the Richmond area, home of Antique Alley; and, the town of Fairmount features the home and final resting place of movie icon James Dean.

The South Central and South regions show off the beauty of Indiana forests and rolling hills. Brown County, in south central Indiana is a popular place to view the colors of fall. The city of Madison is one of several Ohio River communities that offers historic charm and scenic views. The river runs along the south, where Evansville entertains with a riverwalk, museums, and abundant recreation opportunities. Spencer County, the boyhood home of Abraham Lincoln, attracts visitors from all over to the family friendly theme park, Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari.
