Centralia, WA

united states

Centralia sits along I-5 between Seattle and Portland, making it a natural pit stop for road trippers. Take Exit 82 to reach downtown, or use Highway 6 west toward the coast and Route 507 east to smaller towns. The Chehalis Centralia Airport lies five miles southeast. The city's twin cooling towers from the steam plant have been a highway landmark since 1972, visible for miles in either direction.
