Quirky Tourist Attractions in or near Arkansas

While in Arkansas, you might enjoy a visit to:

A corporate museum occupies the humble town square spot where Sam Walton's Wal-Mart began. See Sam's preserved office, his hunting boots, his favorite pickup truck, and his wife's wedding dress, among many other inspiring artifacts.

Over the years, the town's black raven statue had been torched twice by vandals. Nevermore! The current model is more impervious to morons, standing on a small plaza flanked by an Arkansas and an American flag.

The USS Razorback served longer than any other World War II sub, and was acquired from the Turkish navy (who'd had it since 1970) for one dollar.
~114 miles from Crossett.

The famous half-man, half-fish has ruled from his humid perch in an outbuilding since the Alligator Farm first opened.
~116 miles from Crossett.

Snake-lovin' Dale Ertel runs a small reptile ranch tourist attraction in the building next to his home.

In this Creationist creation, man and dinosaurs survived the Great Flood and lived together. For a while anyway.

Cryptic symbols chiseled in stone, left perhaps by Vikings, who must've turned left instead of right at the iceberg.
~181 miles from Crossett.

An enduring, large-scale Christian theme park Passion Play, only 2.5 hours long! Plan accordingly.
