For an experience worth writing home about, hightail it to one (or all) of these dozen spots that are unlike anything else, anywhere else:
Cano’s Castle
Antonito
It’s hard to say how many hundreds of hubcaps and beer cans line the walls of Cano’s Castle, but you’ll have plenty of time to think about that as you approach Antonito, as you’ll see the gleaming thing from miles away. Since you can't actually enter Cano's Castle, it's a good thing that it’s at its most remarkable from the outside. Take it all in from the roadside long enough, though, and there’s a chance you’ll meet its creator, Dominic “Cano” Espinoza, who may insist that it was God who built the castle and that Jesus lives inside. While a fire last year destroyed a portion of the compound, the twin spires are still standing and the site is still very much worth the trip to Antonito. While there, grab lunch at Dos Hermanas Mexican/American Steakhouse for heaping helpings (of course!) of authentic southern Colorado Mexican fare. Find our more here.
