A great stop for local ice cream. Don’t miss it! After you finish, take a short walk to the train station and climb the steel bridge over the railroad tracks to a little park with a great view of Staunton from above. Perfect little walk!

I believe this is the biggest antique mall in the US. Be prepared to get lost, but what a great place to get lost. I go here often to search for specific items such as a side table, teapots or an enamel dog bowl. Sometimes I go just to meander up and down endless aisles! Another great spot when the weather is too hot or too cold.
