Stopped by just to snap a photo of the world's largest chili pepper out front and honestly, that's the only thing worth stopping for. The sculpture's massive, bright red, and makes for a fun...

Quick little quirky roadside attraction. It's close to the freeway so you don't have to go out of your way to see. Make the stop!

Fun, quick stop for a photo op. This massive 47 foot concrete red chile pepper is located in front of the Big Chile Inn on Hotel Row on Picacho Avenue. No longer fenced in, you can get up close...

Visited June 1, 2023. Very cool roadside attraction. It is a BIG Chili Pepper. 47-foot-long red chili pepper made of 2.5 tons of concrete. In a motel parking lot (Big Chile Inn). Selfie worthy.
