If someone of you suddenly will be in St. Louis County, California, United States, do not forget to visit one of the places of worship of the city - wall of the chewing gum.
Two long stone walls, all of 21 meters, are covered with tens of thousands of recycled jaws plates and pads in different colors and sizes. Almost every visitor tends to add its contribution to the "construction" of the wall.

There she was in 1950, as the rivalry of two students of local schools. In the 70 years because of complaints from local merchants and residents to unsanitary walls were completely cleaned. However, there are not overgrown popular trail, and "rubber" wall there again.





Recently alley wall chewing gum became not just a place for the expression of local residents and tourists have left them countless primitive drawings and inscriptions of the gum. But professional and attracted artists such as Matthew Hoffman (Matthew Hoffman) has left even his self-portrait on one wall.
