Delaware's capital city, one of the smallest and oldest of state capitals, has kept its original charm and beauty. The Green, laid out in 1722 in accordance with William Penn's orders of 1683, has changed little. Tour the 18th-century Old State House and admire the Colonial homes on the Green, see historical exhibits at the Delaware State Museums, and call at the John Dickinson Plantation (1740). Guided tours of historic Dover begin at the Visitor Center behind the Old State House. The Delaware Agricultural Museum & Village has restored and reconstructed buildings and a fine collection of agricultural equipment. Special events at the museum highlight seasonal chores and pastimes of a farming community. Dover Downs features NASCAR races in June and September and harness racing from November through April; adjacent is Dover Downs Slots & Simulcast. Dover Air Force Base has a fine historical museum with many vintage aircraft and artifacts.
