Nappanee, Indiana may be full of interesting things to do. You know the Quilt Gardens, the Amish, and those backroad tours are always making headlines. There’s no shortage of unique and family-friendly attractions and restaurants. But have you ever stopped to take a look around? I don’t mean to ask if you are searching for the next Amish buggy or local cafe, but instead to look for something up a little higher. Have you noticed the assortment of painted murals that decorate the downtown? These murals possess a wonderful vintage feel and adorn more than a building or two.

These painted murals add such a charming touch to an already easy-on-the-eyes kind of Indiana town. These painted murals are perfectly suited to the charming old architecture of Nappanee.

These are a few of my favorites. Elkhart County is more than a place to gawk at the Amish–it’s a destination with a thousand reasons to visit. Shops, food, architecture, history: it’s all right here in your very own backyard.
