Simba the Adventure Pup 🐾 and I stopped by the legendary Cabazon Dinosaurs in Cabazon, California — one of the most iconic roadside attractions in the American West. These towering fiberglass giants have been greeting travelers along I-10 since the 1960s, their massive T. rex and friendly brontosaurus silhouettes standing proudly against the desert sky. 🌞🦕

Vibrant, quirky, and full of classic roadside charm, the Cabazon Dinosaurs are pure nostalgia. Whether you remember them from Pee-wee’s Big Adventure, grew up spotting them on desert road trips, or simply love oversized sculptures with personality, this stop delivers instant joy.
