It's the North Carolina/South Carolina border.

And it's awesome! Everyone should go. Check out the reptile house, it's legitimately fantastic.

I don't remember reptiles but I have a keychain with a penny from there from when I was a kid.

Judging by the trees lacking leaves, this is at the US-Canada border.

How unconventional.

But seriously, does anyone ever actually go here? Every time we drive by on I-95 it looks like it has been closed.

South of the Border? Yes, it is a bit run down. But it's awesome. Go there. It's 100% authentic Route 66 style kitsch. There's a kick-ass reptile house with crocodiles and huge fucking snakes. 10/10, would go again.
