Driving the dusty highways of Arizona can feel lonely. The views are great but the distance between towns can be dozens of miles apart, the radio stations still have a tendency to go in and out, and losing cell phone service can still happen frequently. Finding a roadside attraction makes for a nice break in the monotony, whether it’s a beloved pit stop or an attraction you’ve noticed for the first time.
Today, we’re going to focus on one attraction that is easy to miss but worth the stop for a look and even a bite to eat. Let’s take a look!
This roadside attraction takes us to Superior, Arizona, a town well-known for its incredible vistas, mining history, and even the hints of a spooky ambiance.
A walk or drive through Superior will tell you plenty about its small town atmosphere and it looks like a classic Western town that you would expect to see in the movies!
The attraction we’re looking at today, celebrates that history in its own little way. It sits on the property of the Buckboard City Cafe in Superior, a restaurant for diner meals and a hot cup of coffee.
Hmm, what do you think that little diorama represents? You’ll have to visit to find out! If you’re still curious, the video below provides even more information about the museum, with information about its origins and a brief peek at the exhibits inside!
The World’s Smallest Museum is located on the property of the Buckboard Restaurant, found at 1107 West Highway 60 in Superior.
