The United States of America is such a large country that perhaps one lifetime is not enough to cover all of it. From the East coast to the West coast, from New York to California, there are a lot of experiences. And in all this vastness, we’re giving you some insight into the places you definitely do not want to miss out on when in the US.
- Statue of Liberty, New York: The Statue of Liberty, located on the New York harbour is a sight to behold. A gift to the USA from France, Lady Liberty is the epitome of freedom and a major but not overrated tourist spot for those travelling to NYC. Make sure you book your ferry in advance and get a chance to climb up the crown for a larger-than-life view.
- Hollywood, California: The movies you might have seen do not do justice to this famous landmark in Los Angeles. Home to the world’s oldest and one of the largest entertainment industries, this is a place you don’t want to miss. If you’re lucky, you may also be able to take a hike up the hill and maybe even see a celebrity!
- Grand Canyon, Arizona: The origin of the Grand Canyon can be traced back to at least 40 million years ago. Not only is it a landmark that should be on your bucket-list, but there are a number of things you can do around the area such as visit the Grand Canyon National Park, the Hualapai Indian Reservation and the Navajo Nation.
- Las Vegas, Nevada: No trip to the US is complete without a hop down the Las Vegas strip. Those looking for a party destination, need not look any further. Go do a bit of gambling at Caesar’s Palace, Mandalay Bay or the Bellagio or catch a gig by your favourite band or artist in this resort city of Nevada.
- Mount Rushmore, South Dakota: The United States of America is known to revere its forefathers and Mount Rushmore is a tribute forged in stone to pay tribute to the men that made the country what it is today - a symbol of unity and fraternity. Located in the Black Hills in Keystone, it’s a popular tourist destination which attracts close to 2 million visitors annually.
