Benson Highway

The mural is a look at the old Benson Highway.  Before I-10 was built, the Benson Highway was the main road from Tucson to Benson.  The mural was painted by Alejandra Trujillo at the El Pais Motel & Campgrounds located on the Benson Highway.

Note - The Spanish "El Pais" translates to "The Country" in English.

Update (September 3, 2021): Today's post El Pais Motel has photos of the rest of the motel, where artists are painting lots of murals.
