World's Largest Rubik's Cube

It's definitely a Rubik's Cube, and it's definitely large. Nestled in the corner of a hotel lobby, conveniently next to a cute, little coffee shop. Worth a look-see.

It's very easy to find. Enter the Holiday Inn World's Fair lobby and head straight back towards the restaurant. Turn right and you'll see it adjacent to the escalator. The motor is working again!

Across from the Knoxville Convention Center, look for the Holiday Inn sign. Go in the lobby and head straight back towards the restaurant. As you near the hostess stand for the restaurant, look right and you will see the World's Largest Rubik's Cube.
