A large number of tourist attractions in Oklahoma have propelled the tourists to pay recurrent visits to this American state.

Moreover, the Replica Bomb Crater- a tourist attraction place in the city of Boise, has added another reason to paying a visit to Oklahoma.
An accidental bombing in the city of Boise in the year 1943 was not much of a tragedy because of the six bombs that fell in the city, not a single one caused damage to any of the city's property except for a garage. In 1993, on the 50th anniversary of the bombing the 1,700 residents of this city decided to build a replica bomb crater. This plan materialized and a replica bomb crater was placed right before the chamber of commerce office. Although, not a very exemplary structure, this crater bomb replica in Oklahoma has had many visitors and leisure travelers in the past few years and today, it is considered as one of the many tourist attraction destination in Oklahoma. The town of Boise also homes a thirty foot long steel dinosaur statue placed in the northern limits of the city to honor the dinosaur quarry nearby.
