The United States, spread between two oceans, is a very large and diverse country. It has wonderful vacation spots, ideal for short as well as long breaks. Excluding the marvelous Alaska and Hawaii, there are 48 continental spots, and six places situated across the width and breadth of America that are worth visiting. These places are endowed with varied experiences and fun and we will know about these six places in a short time.
Acadia National Park, situated besides the shoreline of Maine on Mt. Desert Island, is a beautiful, hilly national park. In the nearby town of Bar Harbor, one can get good rooms in a motel or a B&B, or enjoy a lovely boat ride down the Frenchman's Bay. The park is developed around a $20 toll road passing through the rocky and amazing coastal mountains.
New York City is a wonderful place for vacation. Take a free ride (pedestrians are free) on the famous Staten Island Ferry, and enjoy watching the amazing Manhattan skyline and the remarkable Statue of Liberty. Besides, to discover the mouth of the Hudson River, just wander through Tribeca, a part of Lower Manhattan, or cross to the west side of the river and see the Palisades State Park in New Jersey. While driving up the west side of the historic river, one comes across many other beautiful places.
New Orleans is somewhat different from other cities in the United States. To enjoy the uniqueness of this city, visit the Jackson Square, located in the center of the French Quarter near the Mississippi River. Enjoy a ride on a riverboat and a horse-drawn carriage, or just enjoy walking through the old French Quarter. Pirate's Alley, Royal Street and the Preservation Hall, where the Preservation Jazz band plays, all are nearby. The place truly rocks in the spring when the climate is not very hot.
Grand Tetons National Park, situated in the northwestern area of Wyoming and very close to the Yellowstone National Park, is fabulous with amazing peaks, the picturesque Snake River, and some superb back country. The place is wonderful for camping, viewing the beauty of the peaks, horse riding or climbing up to the base of the grand peaks. The nearby Yellowstone National Park is also worth a visit.
Just walk across the famous Golden Gate Bridge, a grand steel structure, and enjoy the magic of viewing the steep hills and the gorgeous bay.
Next, enjoy visiting the Santa Fe Indian Market, which takes place every August in the charming city of Santa Fe. Local dealers, buyers and visitors come from all over the country during this event. One can get the best quality and a wide variety of goods and artwork here. Over all, the United States is the best option for vacation.
