What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors appreciate the vibrant murals as a colorful addition to Kingman's historic Route 66 downtown. The artwork, particularly by artist Ray Harvey, is praised for enhancing the area's charm and providing excellent photo opportunities. While some note they might not be the most spectacular murals, their integration with historic buildings and nearby shops like Mudd's on 66 makes for a worthwhile stop.
"Not the best Route 66 mural out there, but I appreciate the effort! The building to the left is a bonus. It was built in 1904 as the local Elks Lodge and has interesting details you won't find on buildings today."
