From the Arcadia Round Barn to the Milk Bottle Building, historic Route 66 is an irresistible trip back in time to a bygone era with all its romanticism and quirky charm. Oklahoma boasts about 400 miles of the Mother Road -- more than any of the eight Route 66 states – which makes sense when you consider it originated with a Tulsan, Cyrus Avery, who conceived of a route linking Chicago to Los Angeles. Loads of Route 66 websites and reference books are out there, and TravelOk.com has some nifty suggestions for exploring “the highway that is best.” Find out why it was known as the Main Street of America.
