The House on the Rock

4

Our first major stop! Neil Gaiman wrote about this place in one of our favorite books, "American Gods." When we first started planning this road trip, we knew we had to go here.

Gaiman's words about The House on the Rock: "I had to tone down my description of it and leave things out in the book in order to make it believable. It's a monument to kitsch and wonder and madness and uncertainty. It contains the largest carousel in the world, which nobody ever gets to ride (although people ride it in the book. It takes them somewhere)..."
