Limestone Road Cut – Frankfort – Kentucky

A winding road cuts through a rocky landscape with a cliff face on one side and lush greenery on both sides under overcast skies. The gray skies cast a soft light on the scene, emphasizing the tranquility and solitude of this stretch of highway.

Frankfort offers a unique experience to travelers, as the downtown is surrounded by limestone cliffs, cut by Kentucky River that drains one third of state of Kentucky into the Ohio River to the North. To reach the newer parts of the city, a series of road cuts were created to reach the historic downtown, which resides along the Kentucky River, and at the base of the surrounding cliffs. Frankfort, Kentucky’s capital was founded 1786.
