While passing through South Dakota on our way to Montana, Cruisin’ Crystal and I were informed we had to stop at the Corn Palace. Now neither one of us knew what this was, or had we heard of it before, but we figured me might as well check it out. And if we weren’t already convinced to stop and see this palace, all of the billboards every couple miles for the hundred miles leading up to it were convincing enough. Once we pulled into Mitchell, South Dakota we followed the signs to the “World’s Only Corn Palace.” Surrounded by regular buildings and residential homes, the Corn Palace definitely was noticeable.

You may not be able to tell from the picture, so you should probably go visit Mitchell, SD, but everything on the outside is decorated with different parts of the corn stalk. After all the anticipation leading up to our visit, we didn’t even get to go inside because the palace was closed. We arrived twenty minutes too late, and it was closed for the day. So I checked out the website to find out what was inside. Maybe I’ll get to stop by the next time I’m swinging through the area so I can see for myself.
