Foamhenge: Natural Bridge, Virginia
Foamhenge, another bad imitation of Stonehenge in England, was erected by artist Mark Cline as a roadside attraction for an April Fool’s Day joke with the eventual purpose of drawing people to Natural Bridge, Virginia. Despite the fact that it was created as a joke, Foamhenge became a huge success and became a feature of Natural Bridge. Having said that, it did bring tourists to the area and was judged a success. However, it is still simply a styrofoam sculpture, and there isn’t much to see in that aspect.

New River Gorge Bridge: Fayetteville, West Virginia
The New River Gorge Bridge near Fayetteville, West Virginia, was the world’s longest steel arch bridge when it was built in the 1970s. However, it has only held that distinction in the United States following the completion of China’s Shanghai Lupo Bridge. This old bridge is historically significant because it used innovative construction technology at the time and was typically designed. However, driving across may be frightening, and driving over this bridge would be similar to driving over any other bridge. Sure, it’s good to get a nice view here and there, but it’s not worth driving all the way over.
