This Eerily Beautiful Spot In Georgia Feels Like A Post-Apocalyptic Playground
While taking a fall road trip to the mountains or the cute small towns in your state, making some pit stops at roadside attractions is a must. The Northern areas of The Peach State have many of these cool stops, but one will make you feel like you've stepped into a post-apocalyptic world. Old Car City in Georgia is the perfect place to get out, stretch your legs, and do a little exploring.
Old Car City is located in White, Georgia and will take you back in time. It's been dubbed the largest known classic car junkyard in the world according to the official website.
The eerily beautiful spot today feels like a post-apocalyptic playground as nature overgrows and seems to reclaim these vintage rides, but it was first a general store back in 1931, which you can still visit tucked away on the property.
