Bill Monroe's Blue Grass Music Park & Festivals
 
Believed to be the site of the oldest continuous annual bluegrass festival in the world, Bill Monroe's Bean Blossom Blue Grass Music Park's natural beauty has been enhanced by the careful grooming of the festival grounds. Colorful flower beds exist where none had been before; roads and campsites are named for performers and faithful bluegrass fans; a walking trail is marked where Bill Monroe always took early morning walks around his property; and the lake is equipped with fountains to combat algae and beautify the scenery.  The walls of the office, museum, and gift shop are lined with rare historic photographs.  Couple all this with top-flight bluegrass talent, and you have the formula for a wonderful entertainment experience that you will long remember.

Bean Blossom Bridge
 
The Bean Blossom Covered Bridge crosses Bean Blossom Creek on Covered Bridge Road, Brown County.  This single span modified Howe Truss structure has a length of 60 feet, or 69 feet including the 4-foot 6 inch overhang at each end, with a portal clearance 12 feet wide by 13 feet high.  Built in 1880 by Joseph Basley at a cost of $1,175, at the north end of the structure is a 36-foot ramp.  In days past, this bridge was on the main road to Nashville, Indiana, until bypassed by in 1936 by State Road 135.  Because of its location in Brown County, and thus a proximity to the famous local art colony, this structure probably  has the distinction of being the subject of more covered bridge paintings than any other in Indiana.
