El centro histórico de Branson
¡Arrancamos nuestro recorrido en Main Street, cruzando justo por el corazón del centro histórico de Branson! Este es el lugar donde empezó todo, mucho antes de los teatros, las atracciones gigantes y las luces brillantes que hicieron famosa a la ciudad.

A finales del siglo diecinueve, este era solo un pueblito de los Ozarks que atendía a granjeros, comerciantes y viajeros que cruzaban el sur de Misuri. La llegada del tren ayudó a Branson a convertirse en un vibrante centro comercial, y muchas de las fachadas de ladrillo que ven hoy datan de principios del siglo veinte.

A diferencia de la zona de entretenimiento que visitaremos más tarde, el centro de Branson conserva ese encanto de pueblo chico. Echen un vistazo a las tienditas locales, cafés y edificios históricos a ambos lados de la calle. Nos recuerda que, antes de ser la "Capital Mundial del Entretenimiento en Vivo", Branson era solo una acogedora comunidad de los Ozarks.

En un momentito pasaremos por una de las tiendas más famosas del centro, un lugar que ya es toda una atracción por sí solo.

Dick's 5&10: tradición de Branson
Pasando el semáforo, miren a su izquierda para ver uno de los lugares más emblemáticos de Branson: Dick's 5 & 10.

Y ojo, que no es una simple tienda de recuerdos. Desde que abrió en 1961, Dick's se ha vuelto toda una institución en Branson, llenando más de 50,000 pies cuadrados con de todo: desde dulces de antes y juguetes clásicos, hasta utensilios de cocina, artesanías, coleccionables y tesoros nostálgicos.

El nombre "5 & 10" es un viaje al pasado, a las viejas tiendas de variedades donde las cosas cotidianas costaban solo cinco o diez centavos. Aunque esos precios ya son historia, el espíritu de esas clásicas tiendas de "todo a centavo" sigue vivo aquí.

Si tienen tiempo después del tour, vale la pena entrar. Aunque no compren nada, caminar por sus pasillos es como retroceder a una época más simple de la cultura estadounidense.
