This summer has been a “Summer of Travel”, and a little over a week ago we returned from a 4-day trip to Wyoming, South Dakota, and Nebraska.
While in Alliance Nebraska, an overnight stop on our way back to Colorado, we visited Carhenge.
I bet most of you have heard of Stonehenge the “prehistoric monument located in Wiltshire, England, known for its stone circle structure” (Google AI).

Well the Carhenge is described as “Nebraska’s unique tribute to Stonehenge” (using old cars). You can read the history of the creation of this “roadside attraction” here – History of Carhenge, but here are a sampling of our photos from our visit to give you a virtual experience of seeing Carhenge!
I look forward to seeing Stonehenge someday when I visit the UK, but Carhenge was quite breathtaking in person. Very creative recycling of old cars!
Inside the gift shop was a humorous comic style poster by the designer about the attraction:
Thought I would share with you all a little fun from our most recent roadtrip.
Let me know in the comments if you’ve ever been in Carhenge (or the original Stonehenge) and let me know what you thought of it.
