 Quirky Tourist Attractions in or near CaliforniaWhile in California, you might enjoy a visit to: Bronze statue of a surfer in heroic stance in front of his board, ever watchful for the next good wave. Dedicated in 1992. Strangely contorted trees transplanted from defunct Scots Valley attraction to Gilroy. A healthy-sized tribute -- 20-ft. tall -- to a local crop and specialty at the Giant Artichoke Restaurant. The mockup for the Boeing SST, the never-completed rival to the supersonic Concord, is exhibited. Also look for the Rotorcycle collapsible helicopter, and the flying platform. |
