Legend has it that she can also be occasionally spotted typing up short bios in the third person, but those rumors are unsubstantiated.
Hidden in a stunning valley in beautiful Brown County (literally the most beautiful area of Indiana) it is one of the oldest covered bridges in the entire state. It’s gorgeous, having been built in 1880, and to this day it’s an iconic symbol of the Hoosier State’s beauty. The Bean Blossom covered bridge in Indiana is a treat to check out all year round, but in the fall, it takes on a particularly special glow. It’s surrounded by healthy, fluffy trees, and during autumn, those trees always eventually find themselves ablaze with color.
Visiting the old Bean Blossom bridge is awesome all the time, but when autumn is your favorite season, well, then that's the perfect time.
There are plenty of fun and awe-inspiring things to do in the fall in Indiana, but visiting our awesome covered bridges is toward the top (for us, anyway).
They're outrageously photogenic, and when they're surrounded by the golds, oranges, and crimsons of a changing season, it's impossible not to bust out the camera (or camera phone) and fire off a few frames.
Nearby the bridge, you'll find the adorable little town of - you guessed it - Bean Blossom.
Bean Blossom is definitely one of our favorite small towns in Indiana to visit any time, but definitely make sure to visit in autumn - you will never forget it.
After all, it's pretty impossible to forget the scenes that take your breath away, and if you're a fan of cozy, old-school Americana, few things will be as splendid as one of our best pieces of living history surrounded by vivid color.
