Wyoming's Natural Attractions

Without a doubt, Yellowstone National Park is Wyoming's premier natural attraction. As one of the oldest national parks, Yellowstone has a long and fascinating history that visitors are sure to find enchanting. When it comes to visiting Yellowstone, one stop that everyone needs to make is at Old Faithful. This geyser shoots water into the air to a height of between 115 to 165 feet about every two hours. With interactive exhibits and pristine natural wilderness preserved for everyone to enjoy, Yellowstone is a great place to stop on any trip to Wyoming.

Another fantastic natural attraction that visitors are sure to enjoy are the Bighorn Mountains of Northern Wyoming. Majestically standing across the entire length of northern Wyoming, the Bighorn Mountains are named after the Bighorn sheep that live here. With absolutely stunning scenery and hundreds of miles of world-class hiking trails, the Bighorn Mountains are a stunning natural area that preserves some of America's finest wilderness. All in all, anyone who loves nature will remember forever a trip to the Bighorn Mountains.

Wyoming's Cultural Attractions

One of Wyoming's most fascinating cultural attractions is the Abraham Lincoln Memorial in Laramie. This monument to the 16th President of the US shows the deep dedication that Wyoming's people feel for the United States. Sculpted originally by University of Wyoming professor Robert Russin, the Abraham Lincoln Memorial is located along Interstate 80 West where it greets travelers to come and contemplate on Lincoln's contributions to the country. Without a doubt, visitors seeing the Abraham Lincoln Memorial are left with a deep impression of the impact this president had on the United States.

Another captivating cultural attraction in Wyoming is the Ames Brothers Pyramid in Buford. Dedicated to preserving the story of how the Union Pacific Railroad connected the eastern United States with the west by crossing over Wyoming, this pyramid is a testament to the iron leadership that the company had when Oliver Ames was at its helm as it built the Wyoming section of its East-West Mainline. In addition to telling the story of Oliver Ames and his leadership, the Ames Brothers Pyramid details how Oakes Ames assisted the Union Pacific Railroad Company in its efforts to secure help from the US Government as the company built the rail line across the West. On the whole, the Ames Brothers Pyramid is one of the most interesting cultural attractions in Wyoming.

Wyoming's Historical Attractions

Standing like a sentinel on the banks of the Sweetwater River, the Independence Rock State Historic Site is a monument to the westward expansion of the United States. As a landmark on the pioneer trails that crossed Wyoming, the Independence Rock was a famous stop throughout the 19th Century. One thing that made this monolith so famous was the fact that settlers passing this way carved their names in the gigantic rock for over 150 years. Today, visitors to this historic attraction can see an up-close and personal view of who the people were that settled the western United States.

One other captivating historical attraction is the Wyoming Frontier Prison Museum in Rawlins. This prison closed in 1981 and has since been turned into a museum that preserves the history of law enforcement and the correctional institutions of this fascinating state. Today, this prison offers visitors a chance to experience first-hand what life was like for those incarcerated in Wyoming during the late 1800s and for most of the 1900s. With exhibits showcasing the experiences of Death Row inmates and those who faced solitary confinement, the Wyoming Frontier Prison Museum is definitely one place that leaves a strong impression on its visitors.

Upon taking a look at everything available to travelers visiting Wyoming, it is understandable why some people say this state is America's best kept secret. With friendly people and pristine natural areas, Wyoming welcomes visitors to come and see some of the most spectacular natural, historical, and cultural attractions found anywhere in the country. In conclusion, a visit to Wyoming will certainly be the experience of a lifetime.
