Not only do they hold 8 records for the ‘world’s largest’ items, but they also have a series of “Big” items that can be found around town. World’s Largest Rocking Chair, Windchime, Mail Box, Golf Tee, Wooden Clogs, Pitchfork, Knitting Needles, and Crochet HookĬasey, Illinois is a roadside attraction enthusiast’s dream town. 30 minutes to explore the interior of the store.Īddress: 2131 N Centerville Rd, Centerville, IN 47330 Casey, Illinois Time needed: A few minutes to stop and look at the candle. I’ll have to take their word for it, as I didn’t stop to go. This is a fun stop to stretch your legs and according to the billboards I saw, they have the cleanest restrooms on I-70. Next door is a store that sells decorations for your yard and patio. If you’re hungry you can grab a bite to eat at their onsite diner. The huge candle is attached to a candle and home décor store that also sells food products, chocolates, and wine. I wasn’t able to explore the store at that time because we arrived before it was open but have since stopped to check it out. I’ve passed by many times but the first time I’ve stopped was on our trip to Branson. The World’s Largest Candle, which is part of the Warm Glow Store, can be seen from I-70 heading towards Indianapolis. Allow yourself an hour- two minimum for a very condensed tour.Īddress: 1100 Spaatz St, Dayton, OH 45431 Centerville, Indiana Time needed: How much time do you have? Seriously, you could spend days at this attraction and never see everything. Another reason to stop? This museum is free. The museum features more than 360 aerospace vehicles and missiles on display with thousands of personal artifacts, photographs, and documents to highlight the Air Force’s contributions and actions from the beginnings of military flight to today’s war on terrorism. Well worth the stop if you have time to spare. The National Museum of the United States Air Force has one of the world’s largest collections of aircraft’s and missiles on display and is one of the most visited tourist attractions in Ohio. Photo provided by the National Museum of the Air Force National Museum of the United States Airforce This spot deserves a closer look (read my post above to learn why).Īddress: 6350 Woerner Temple Road, Dublin, OH 43017 Dayton Time needed: You can drive by this one or park your vehicle in the parking lot and walk up the hill to check it out. Read more about this attraction here: The Giant Dancing Hares of Dublin Roadside Attraction Located at the entrance to the luxurious, Irish inspired Ballantrae community, the bunnies are visible on a hill, or hillock as they like to say in Dublin, overlooking a splash pad and pond situated on 20 acres of land. You don’t need to get out of your car to spot the Giant Dancing Hares in Dublin, Ohio. Time needed: You can drive by or hop out to run between the corn, the choice is yours. Read more about this attraction here: Field of Corn Roadside Attraction Thirteen rows with 109 concrete ears of corn that each stand over six feet tall comprise the Field of Corn (with Osage Oranges) roadside attraction to pay homage to the once rural area’s agricultural background.

If you have little ones, you may want to allow extra time so they can play at the playground.Īddress: 7377 Riverside Dr, Powell, OH 43065 Time needed: Allow 15 minutes at this stop to photograph the statue and then to walk or drive down to the lower parking area for a view of the Scioto River. Visitors can read about the monument, dial a number from their cell phone to learn more and even climb on the monument. This giant limestone sculpture isn’t the only draw to this riverside park but it may be the most impressive.

Starting with a few (mainly the ones in Ohio) that we didn’t stop to explore but stops that would make a great addition to your road trip to Branson. In this post, I share all the roadside attractions on the way to Branson.

We made plenty of stops along the way as I introduced them to the free roadside art displays that I’ve grown to love. Last summer, I took a road trip with my mom and dad from our home in Ohio to Branson, Missouri and back. There are plenty of roadside attractions popping up throughout the US in the name of public art. I guess I’ve always thought of roadside attractions as a dying art but maybe that’s not true.
