See the Sights
Roadside attractions are a big part of what makes Route 66 special. Some are strange or silly. Others are historic. All are a treat for travelers. Here are four.
Pit Stop
Roy’s Motel and Café (above) is in Amboy, California. It was a popular spot to eat or rest. It’s closed now. But visitors can pose under its famous sign.
Friendly Face
The Blue Whale of Catoosa is near Catoosa, Oklahoma. It’s 20 feet tall and 80 feet long. It was completed in 1972.
Colorful Cars
These cars don’t run. They’re partly buried! They’re part of Cadillac Ranch. It’s an art installation in Amarillo, Texas.
Mmm, Tasty!
The World’s Largest Catsup Bottle is in Illinois. If filled with ketchup, it would hold 100,000 gallons. That’s about 640,000 bottles.
