What's the most famous place in Rhode Island?

Is there something in Rhode Island that would be known nationwide? For example, Johns Hopkins hospital is famous outside of Maryland, but not everyone knows it's in Maryland. Or Harvard University for Massachusetts. Or Mount Rushmore for South Dakota. In other words: What's the most famous thing I didn't realize was in Rhode Island?
