Pseudohistorical Site sights in USA

  1. Fountain of Youth

    When Ponce de León first came ashore here in 1513, the Timucuans are said to have shown him a freshwater stream some believe to be the fabled Fountain of Youth. Today, you can take a kitschy 45-minute tour of the site, now an 'archaeological park,' and drink from the sulfur-tasting trickle, but we seriously doubt it'll have any anti-wrinkle powers! The park is about a mile north of downtown – just follow the signs.
