Does Southern California have any unique roadside attractions?
If you're a fan of these wacky cultural features, the many roadside attractions in Southern California will be just right for you. One of our favorites is Elmer's Bottle Tree Ranch along Route 66 in Barstow. This unique installation is exactly what it sounds like, a large plot of land packed full of trees made of discarded bottles. It's quite beautiful in a haunting way, and we love seeing trash being repurposed. Or you could take a visit to the iconic Salvation Mountain; this massive hand-painted hill was deemed "folk art worth of preservation," and when you see it we think you'll agree. If you can't get enough of roadside attractions, we have even designed a lovely little Southern California road trip that will take you to eight distinct sites in about eight hours of driving.
What are the weirdest museums in Southern California?
There are so many weird and cool museums in Southern California to both educate and delight all types of people! On one end you have the Bunny Museum, with its walls full of over 30,000 items shaped like bunny rabbits (don't forget to greet the massive bunnies guarding the door,) and on the other, you have the Museum of Death where you can learn about all things related to death. (This one's not for the faint of heart, that's for sure!) And for something really out of the box, there is the International Banana Museum. Yup, you heard that right. The cases at this unique museum hold around 25,000 items that look like bananas. Admission is only a dollar and there is even a café serving up banana-flavored treats.
Are there any good drive-in restaurants in Southern California?
Those on the hunt for good drive-in restaurants in Southern California are in luck because there are a few great ones! The West Coast loves a good drive-in because it's the perfect place to chow down quickly and still enjoy great service. Firstly we recommend the B & J Drive-in in Ventura for a really authentic experience. This old school drive-in is kind of a hidden secret, they've been serving up delectable burgers and shakes since the 50s, and in more recent years have added Mexican classics like tacos and aqua Fresca to the menu. Another great Southern California drive-in is Mel's diner in Sherman Oaks. This place will make you feel like you've traveled back in time in the best of ways. Definitely give the short-rib grilled cheese a try!
