Quirky Tourist Attractions in or near Kentucky

While in Kentucky, you might enjoy a visit to:

At the Cincinnati Zoo you can see the small aviary building where not one, but two species of bird died out. Bronze statue of Martha, last Passenger Pigeon out front.
~13 miles from Florence.

The Solid Rock Church's giant Jesus bursts from the ground to perplex passers-by on I-75. At least, it did before it was struck by lightning and burst into flames.
~36 miles from Florence.

An animatronic replica of the town's loud-mouthed bird, dead nearly 200 years, entertains visitors to the county museum. But since he was reprogrammed for a sister city visit to Japan, he only speaks Japanese.
~54 miles from Florence.

Growing out of the top of a tower, the tree never seems to die -- which has led to speculation that the town sticks in a new one every few decades.
~51 miles from Florence.
