玉米皇宮
地方性遺產
想像一個充滿彩色壁飾的建築物。現在，在同一棟建築物上，加上全由玉米及其他穀物做成的外殼！這不是一棟虛構的建築物，它是玉米皇宮。
建於1892的玉米皇宮，座落在南達科他州的米契爾市。透過建築物的外在壁飾，玉米皇宮旨在戲劇性的展示，南達科他州的農夫的農產品。這些壁飾是由數千浦式耳玉米及其他的殼物、青草製成，如：野生燕麥、黑麥、麥桿及小麥。每年，這些穀物都會被拆下來，然後再換上全新的壁飾。玉米皇宮是一個絕佳的觀光景點，也是社區的集會所在地。許多活動都在此舉行，而其中最受歡迎的是玉米皇宮亂竄牛仔競技會。但必須把馬匹看緊，以免它們吃掉了這棟建築物！
Imagine a building covered with colorful murals. Now imagine that same building with an exterior made entirely out of corn and other grains! This building exists -- it is the Corn Palace.
Built in 1892 in Mitchell, South Dakota, the Corn Palace was created to dramatically display the products of the harvest of South Dakota's farmers, in murals on the outside of the building. The murals are made from thousands of bushels of corn and other grains and grasses such as wild oats, rye, straw, and wheat. Each year these corn decorations are completely stripped down and entirely new murals are created. The Corn Palace is a great tourist attraction and a meeting place for the community. Many events are held here and the most popular is the Corn Palace Stampede Rodeo. But the horses must be watched carefully so they don't eat the building!
