Chicago is complete with Navy Pier, Sears Tower, The Bean, and many more beautiful attractions. Navy Pier is a great place to grab lunch before heading over to take pictures with The Bean, then popping into Sears tower to see the city from a birds eye view.

This is my favorite place on planet earth, if you are a camping or hiking enthusiast, this is the place for you! You can spend your nights camping at elevations as high as 13,487 feet and spend your days riding your four-wheeler all around the mountain. Enjoy shopping in the small mining town and visit historic museums to learn about the history. The Durango-Silverton vintage steam train will take you right into town and you might even see one of the young moose that were born there last year.

1. Yellowstone National Park

While it is famous for its geysers and springs, Yellowstone is easily the most beautiful place in the USA, its complete with insanely gorgeous mountains, beautiful herds of buffalo, and extremely interesting geysers. (Word to the wise, do not try and take a picture with a buffalo... You will get trampled.)
