Quirky Tourist Attractions in or near Illinois

While in Illinois, you might enjoy a visit to:

Designed by Disney "imagineers" so there's not much to read, but lots of flashy effects and a "pose with the Lincolns" wax dummy photo op.
< 1 mile from Springfield.

The infamous Alamo attacker's artificial limb, in an impressive you-are-there diorama. Pulled from display for the duration of the World War I centennial, which means it won't be back until 2019.
~2 miles from Springfield.

Exhibits and life-size statue at the birthplace of the World's Tallest Man, Robert Wadlow, who stood nearly nine feet tall.
~67 miles from Springfield.
