What are the BEST places to visit in USA?|170231

If someone where to take a trip around America, what places would you suggest they visit and why?

I agree with someone above. The Smokies in Tenn. are great. I think Nashville is also worth a visit. I have enjoyed the Grand Canyon as well as the parks in Utah. Vegas is great for more than gambling. The Black Hills in South Dakota are great and you can catch Yellowstone if you are up that way. Love Seattle. San Fransisco is a jewel. Portland is another great place. Lake Tahoe on the Cal/Nev border is one of my favorite places. LA/Orange County/San Diego are great. You can even cross over to Mexico for the day...Day not night. New Orleans. I am rambling now. Have a great trip. There are so many neat places in the US.

There are so many! It depends on what your interest are. Personal favorites are Tennessee and the Great Smoky Mtns. I love the waterfalls and the mountain drives up the windy, curvy roads. Kentucky is beautiful and Mammoth Cave is something to see. I love the south eastern part of the USA. The ocean is nice at St. Augustine Florida or Myrtle Beach and anywhere in between. If you were going out west I would pick The Grand Canyon or the beaches of California. Las Vegas would be fun. There is so much to see and do. I have lived here all my life and not seen near enough.

It depends on where you are from, what you have already seen, what you enjoy doing, the time of year, your budget and the exchange rate. It_s such a large country, so the options seem endless without any guidance from you.

If you are interested in learning about an important factor that makes the US great, I think a trip to New York City is good. Take tours that emphasize immigration and ethnic neighborhoods. Much of the city_s vitality can be attributed to immigration and the financial markets.

The National Parks system has some amazing parks to see

You will probably enjoy a trip to Yellowstone Park

and the Tetons. While you are there, stay at a dude ranch

Jackson Hole is a colorful town.

I guess if someone were to take a trip around the US with time and money, and that person wanted to get a feeling for the country, I suggest New York City to start, to understand immigration and opportunity. Next stop would be the rich farm land of the mid-west, perhaps including a visit to the Iowa state fair

After that, a visit to Yellowstone with the dude ranch visit, as noted above. Time permitting, a visit to the Grand Canyon and Las Vegas would be interesting. On the west coast, I suggest a visit to Los Angeles, with a tour emphasis on the entertainment business.

These locations give a great overview on what makes this country what it is. Each location is distinct, but uniquely American. Of course, there are many other possibilities.

I suggest Raleigh, NC

There is plenty of stuff to do depending on what you like. If you are looking for Museum_s there is Contemporary Art Museum, Legends of Harley Drag Racing Museum which is Awesome, North Carolina Museum of Art and more if you like nightlife then there is, Bud Light Downtown Live, DIVEbar Raleigh and more.
