<\/p>\nOver the years, Nebraska has garnered a reputation as a “fly-over state” full of cornfields and uninteresting pastures. But we’re here to crush that misconception\u2014because the Cornhusker State is so much more. Sure, we do have our fill of cornfields, but our amazing state also features incredible rock formations, breathtaking rivers, interesting man-made structures, and more.<\/p>\n
Read on for a list of our favorite views that can only be found in Nebraska. And the next time you’re dreading a road trip through the state, think again! You might just find some views you never expected.<\/p>\n

This unique replica of the world-famous Stonehenge in the UK, deemed “Carhendge<\/a>” was constructed of old cars in 1987 by Jim Reinders and his family in memory of his late father during a family reunion. The surrounding site also includes sculptures made of old cars and car parts, offering a unique view that you won’t be able to find anywhere else. Want to pick up a souvenir while you’re there? Head to the Gift Shop and Visitor Center for a physical memory and more information on the area.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Nebraska’s first state park, Chadron State Park<\/a>, was founded in 1921 and is nestled among the distinctive buttes and canyons of Nebraska’s Pine Ridge. Since its founding almost a century ago, this park remains a popular spot for camping, hiking, fishing and more. Between the trails in the park and in the adjacent Nebraska National Forest, a hiker or biker will find more than 100 miles of beautiful trails and old roads suitable for all experience levels. So no matter where you decide to explore within this extraordinary piece of land, you’ll be greeted by a view unlike any other.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge (more fondly known as \u201cBob the Bridge\u201d) is one of Omaha\u2019s most famous and cherished landmarks. The 3,000-foot steel structure spans the Missouri River and connects Omaha to\u00a0Council Bluffs<\/a>\u00a0via a pedestrian walkway, offering fantastic views of both cities. And because the bridge crosses the state line that separates Nebraska from Iowa, you can claim to be standing in two places at once!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Warmer days are perfect for visiting Lincoln\u2019s\u00a0Sunken Gardens<\/a>. This was the only Nebraska garden listed by National Geographic as one of the 300 best to visit in the US and Canada, and it\u2019s not tough to see why. The grounds are absolutely breathtaking at any time of year, but especially when the flowers are in full bloom. Each year, you\u2019ll find an annual floral display featuring more than 30,000 plants designed and arranged to represent a new theme each year.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Arguably one of the most iconic western Nebraska landmarks, Chimney Rock<\/a> is a symbol of the great western migration. Located approximately four miles south of Bayard, at the south edge of the North Platte River Valley, Chimney Rock is a natural geologic formation, a remnant of the erosion of the bluffs at the edge of the North Platte Valley rising some 325 feet from a conical base. The view of the geological tower settled among rolling hills is so perfectly Nebraskan that it is a must-see on your next road trip. If you have time, we also recommend stopping by the Chimney Rock Visitor Center<\/a> nearby, which houses museum exhibits, media presentations and more.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nChadron State Park<\/h2>\n
