In one of my previous post i wrote about impressive streets of the world. The truth is i "forget" one on purpose cause i wanted to make a seperate post for this not just beautiful but also historical street.
Route 66 is also knowen as Will Rogers Highway or Mother Road. This historical highway crosses 8 states and 3 time zones. Route 66 passes throught Chicago, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Arisona before ending to California.
The Highway coverded 2448 miles and it was establised in 11 November 1926 by the Cyrus Avery who was the desiner. Route 66 officially removed from the United States Highway system on June 27 in 1985.
