For those living in Amarillo, Texas, seeing cars in the ground may be daily business, however, for the rest of the country and the world, it may be completely arbitrary. An art structure which accomplishes just that, deemed Cadillac Ranch, is amazing artwork many find hard to believe is located in the United States' Deep South. Placed just off Route 66, ten retired Cadillac cars are buried single file with models from 1948 to 1964. Adapted by American superstar Bruce Springsteen in ‘The River,’ Cadillac Ranch is portrayed as a metaphor for death. However, as a tourist attraction, this fine art is a great attraction for those on a journey through Texas and is sure to make a lasting impression on all passersby.
