3. Rock City - Minneapolis

This unique 5-acre "city" contains three different rock clusters and more than 200 spherical boulders.

I bet you can't guess what this museum is all about. Wait! How did you know that this is the world's largest hand-dug well, which is 109 feet deep x 32 feet in diameter.

The gigantic Vincent van Gogh "Sunflower" painting measures 32x24 feet and can be seen from I-70.
