Most of us grew up watching The Flintstones on Saturday mornings and were delighted to discover an entire theme park dedicated to the prehistoric characters. Sadly, Bedrock City is closing for good at the end of this summer — but not before one last hurrah.

Since 1972, Fred Flintstone has welcomed thousands of tourists to his prehistoric town. Bedrock City was sold and shut down in January of this year, but popular demand led the owner to open the theme park for one last hurrah this summer.

After burning all that rubber, you'll definitely need to stop for gas. The only question is what kind of fuel — will it be Regular or Dino Supreme?

Ditch the car for a little while and take a tour of Fred's humble abode. See where he eats, sleeps, brushes his teeth... maybe there'll even be a stray box of Fruity Pebbles in the pantry!
