Fodor's Expert Review Wall Drug Store

This South Dakota original got its start in 1931 by offering free ice water to road-weary travelers headed for Mount Rushmore. Today, its dining rooms seat 530 visitors at a time. A life-size mechanical Cowboy Orchestra and Chuckwagon Quartet greet you inside, and, in the back, you'll find an animated T. rex, a replica of Mount Rushmore, and a panning and mining experience. The attached Western Mall has 14 shops selling all kinds of keepsakes from cowboy hats, boots, and Black Hills gold jewelry to T-shirts, Western-themed books, and fudge. Just don't skip the doughnuts.
