Southeast Minnesota Attraction Voted One of America’s Favorite Landmarks

Here in Minnesota, we're home to quite a few attractions that people travel from around the country and sometimes from around the world for (lookin' at you Mall of America). Of course, here in southeast Minnesota people travel here for Mayo Clinic and some may travel here to see something like the SPAM Museum. But there's one spot about an hour from Rochester, MN that was voted as one of America's favorite landmarks!

The small town it's in is southeast of Rochester and many people who live in the area have probably gone here before or at least have heard of it. And if you haven't been this is your sign to go since apparently it's one of the best places to check out in the US.
