The museum is located out the back door of a large gift shop. The movie set buildings have been arranged to form an old west town. Stop in the first building and watch the two short films explaining how the sets were constructed and which movies they appeared in. The whole area is small so it doesn’t take very much time to visit but it’s interesting to see how different the real thing is from the way it appears to be in the movies - buildings that are just an elaborate front propped up by two by fours, stucco bricks that are really fiberglass and a stone building made of stryrofoam.
The gift shop is accessible but the town is not due to loose gravel and steps.
The parking lot is large enough for any RV.

If you only knew how many times I've gone there to reenact scenes from my favorite westerns. In a Chinese immigrant accent!
ReplyDeleteThat's funny! We had to watch Josie Wales again to see which scenes featured the buildings.
DeleteAnd where is this? (looks like fun)
ReplyDeleteIt's in downtown Kanab. Not worth going out of your way for but definitely worth stopping of you're there already.
DeleteThanks!
