Welcome to our off the beaten path travel page. These destinations are the most unique, fun, and memorable. I will constantly be adding to this list as we stumble upon more.
Pasaquan
Pasaquan is located in rural Buena Vista, Georgia. It was created by Eddie Owen Martin, AKA St. EOM, in the 1960s. It took him 30 years to complete this unique compound of art. If you enjoy exploring “off the beaten path,” kids and adults who appreciate individuality should make this a must see. Read more about our trip to Pasaquan here.
