This image is a vintage postcard of the Petersen Rock Garden and Museum in Oregon.

The garden is a unique folk art site created by Danish immigrant Rasmus Petersen, who began construction in 1935 using rocks sourced from within an 85-mile radius.
It features intricate miniature castles, churches, and monuments made from various rocks, including obsidian and agates.
The site, located between Bend and Redmond, Oregon, became a popular roadside attraction, drawing a quarter of a million visitors by 1974.
The garden is also known as a peacock sanctuary, with dozens of peacocks roaming the grounds.
