States Of America
Author: Jonathan Williams
Covering the midsection of the Northern American Continent,
United States of America offers a wide range of options of
tourist sites to make you enjoy your stay in The Land of
Opportunities. Pack your bags, fasten your seatbelts and get
ready for one great American adventure. Here's a list of where
you could go in US.
1.) Statue of Liberty
France gave US more than just a gift of American Independence.
The Statue of Liberty has now become a monumental sight that
inspires not only US citizens but those tourists who happen to
glance at this magnificent piece of art. Sadly, now you can't
go inside the Statue anymore because of concerns that stems from
9/11 hijacking.
2.) The Grand Canyon
Head for Arizona and be intimidated by the sheer depth and heft
of The Grand Canyon. Be humbled by its size, timelessness and
tranquil atmosphere. Take on the Grand Canyon Challenge and
explore the roads, trails and turbulent waters in this side of
Colorado.
3.) Yosemite National Park
Yosemite National Park is one of the first wilderness parks
developed in the United States. Located in Sierra Nevada in
California, this park is recognized for its scenic waterfalls,
crystal streams, majestic sequoias, granite cliff, and
ecological diversity. Find your way past the 3.5 million
tourists that visit the site every year.
4.) Glacier National Park
Traverse pristine wilderness and be amazed by the sheer force
of nature by visiting Glacier National Park located at the
northwest corner of Montana along the Rocky Mountains. With a
wide variety of outdoor activities to choose from, both in water
and in land, boredom only sets in when you're ready to go home.
Enjoy camping, swimming, boating, skiing, hiking, and horseback
riding while you enjoy the sun, the ice and water that helped
much develop the park we know today.
5.) Central Park
This 843-acre patch of green in the midst of towering edifices
of Manhattan is a sanctuary from the busy streets of New York.
Visit Central Park and discover the Strawberry Fields,
Jacqueline Kennedy Reservoir, daily performance in Delacorte
Theatre, Concerts in the Great lawn, and more. Rent a carriage
and discover the park on horse-drawn wheels.
6.) Mount Rushmore National Park
On the side of the Black Hills lies a majestic site that
attracts some three million people a day. Bearing the faces of
Presidents Washington Jefferson, Lincoln, and Roosevelt and
measuring some 18-m in length, Mount Rushmore National Park is a
site worthy of a visit. Come here and be struck with awe with
the sheer expertise of the team that carved these faces from the
walls of the mountain.
7.) Las Vegas
Live the life of a hotshot gambler for a night, and walk around
the city not only to gamble but to admire the sheer beauty of
this place. Feast your eyes out with high stakes, great
atmosphere and beautiful people. Imposing casinos like the
Excalibur Palace not only speaks of high rollers but of great
architecture as well.
8.) Hawaii
Plunge right down Hawaii and be greeted with flower garlands
and alohas. Be captivated by Hawaii's hospitality and innate
beauty. Enjoy the sun while sitting down and relaxing in this
worldly paradise.
9.) Arizona Meteor Crater
The sheer size of the crater commands awe from people who see
it. Find guides to help you down the crater and tell you
stories about space, meteors and intergalactic probabilities.
Shops are also available nearby, selling pieces of the meteors,
t-shirts, photographs, and other gift items.
10.) Niagara Falls
Be mesmerized by the thundering waters and mist sprays of
Niagara Falls. Right in the border of Canada and New York,
Niagara Falls remains a site for lovers, poets and adventurers
to visit. Learn how this waterfall evolves from a military
post, a trade center and into the top tourist destination by
visiting its thunderous waters.
