When searching for fun and interesting things to do when traveling to a new area, it often pays to veer off the beaten path and the explore oft-overlooked, or possibly even strange, destinations and attractions.
Using data from Atlas Obscura, Stacker searched around the country for the "coolest hidden wonders," compiling a list of the top spot in each state, from an upside-down forest and mysterious glowing orb to a magic mushroom house and an "underwater city for the dead."
According to the site, the coolest hidden wonder in all of Wisconsin is the Shorewood Ghost Train, a unique installation that "[mimics] the 'schedule, speed, and drama'" of an old high-speed passenger train.
Here's what the site had to say:
"A high-speed passenger train called the Twin Cities 400 used to run through Shorewood, Wisconsin, on its route between Minneapolis and Chicago — until it was decommissioned in 1963. But since 2016, it's lived on as the Shorewood Ghost Train, a multimedia installation on the rail line's former train trestle now known as the Oak Leaf Trail Bridge, which cross over Capitol Drive."
