In the desolate stretch of West Texas near Valentine, an unexpected sight greets travelers — a small, non-functional Prada storefront sitting alone in the desert. Prada Marfa, a permanent art installation created in 2005 by artists Elmgreen & Dragset, is a cultural landmark that offers a striking commentary on consumerism and luxury. Though it's not a real store, it’s filled with genuine Prada items and has become a global icon and selfie magnet, despite bouts of vandalism and theft.
Texas has a spot where Cadillacs are buried, nose first, in the ground for people to spray paint on, we've got mysterious ghost lights that even NASA can't explain, a big ass pair of cowboy boots and more.
We've even got a museum dedicated to toilet seats ... seriously.
