The Peace Chapel

Every stressor and every bit of chaos in your life all disappears the second you see the Peace Chapel and the wave of calmness that comes with it washes over you. Constructed in 1988, the Peace Chapel is made up of a 40 foot circle of granite. The simplicity of this landmark of Huntingdon County shows how the simplest things in life can have the most profound effect on the people who take the time to take them in. The creator of the Peace Chapel, Maya Lin, has created many other landmarks such as the Vietnam Memorial in Washington DC, the Civil Rights Memorial in Montgomery, Alabama, and the Womens Table at Yale University. The Leace Chapel would make for a great trip to anyone who is willing to view the beauty and serenity that comes with it.
