2. Philadelphia's Magic Gardens

This unique museum showcases some of the most astonishing folk and mosaic art that fans will ever set their eyes on! The artwork spans over a half a block, allowing guests to navigate their way up, down, and under the mosaic covered walls. The site opened in 2008 after years and years of work by artist, Isaiah Zagar. Philadelphia's Magic Gardens tell the story of his life and family, the community, and the world. If the name didn't give it away, the address will. The museum is located at 1020 South Street, Philadelphia, PA 19147. Yes, for us NJ natives, this may seem far, but it is worth the travels! Admission is very affordable at only $10 for an adult ticket. Don't forget to take the very popular "steps picture" for your social media post!

3. Paulinskill Viaduct

Art created by our inner artist is sometimes the most beautiful. Paulinskill Viaduct is featured in the Weird NJ books as it is an abandon railroad bridge. The art is located under the top level where trains once ran, and within the archways pictured below. The Paulinskill Viaduct is located in Knowlton, New Jersey.

Outside the structure

"The climb up isn't long, just very steep. Once you get to the top, the view is so worth it! You can see the mountains that overlook the Delaware Water Gap. Climbing down the man hole is fun, scary if it is your first time but nonetheless once you make it down, it's like a whole different world filled with art and expression. It's a nice place to just relax in and be surrounded by colors. It immediately boosts your mood!" says Jersey resident, Cori Mastropolo
