U.S. Route 66, Historic transportation route from Chicago to Los Angeles, United States
This 2,448-mile highway winds through eight states, connecting hundreds of rural communities between Illinois and California across diverse landscapes and terrain.
The United States Bureau of Public Roads established Route 66 in 1926 as part of the first federal highway system, marking a new era in transportation.
The road gained recognition through John Steinbeck's novel The Grapes of Wrath, which depicted it as an escape path during the 1930s Dust Bowl.
Multiple segments of the original Route 66 remain accessible for driving, with markers and signs indicating historic alignments through various states.
Local merchants along Route 66 created distinctive roadside architecture, including oddly shaped motels, native trading posts, and neon-lit restaurants.
