The United States of America is such a diverse place to visit.
Travelling in the United States is extremely easy. In a country where everyone seems to be forever on the move, there's rarely any problem finding a room for the night, and you can almost certainly depend on being able to eat well and inexpensively.
It takes a long time before the sheer pleasure of cruising down the highway, with the radio blaring blues or country music and seeing the signs to Chicago, Memphis or Monument Valley flashing past, begins to fade.
You can pretty well get to wherever you choose by a nationwide network of air, bus and rail. New York and Los Angeles have an exhilarating excitement, and among their worthy rivals are New Orleans, the wonderfully decadent home of jazz, Chicago, a showcase of modern architecture, and San Francisco, on its beautiful Pacific bay.
Few other cities, with the possible exception of Las Vegas, shimmering in the desert, can quite match this level of interest.
You can see vast open spaces of the West, where the scenery is often breathtaking. The splendor of Yosemite, the thermal wonderland of Yellowstone, the awesome red-rock canyons of Arizona and Utah, and the spectacular Rocky Mountains are among many of the treasures preserved and protected in the splendid national park system. Once you reach such wilderness, the potential for hiking and camping is wonderful.
Above all, travellers can enjoy the sheer thrill of experiencing American popular culture in the places where it began. Rock'n'roll place names spring to life, panoramas come into view from a century of movies, road trips taken by your favorite literary characters are still there to be travelled. For music fans, the chance to hear country music in Nashville or rhythm and blues in New Orleans or to visit Elvis's shrine in Memphis. Readers brought up on the books of Mark Twain can ride a paddle wheeler on the Mississippi and moviegoers can live out their Wild West fantasies in the rugged Utah deserts.
You do not have to cross the entire continent from shore to shore in order to appreciate its amazing diversity, or to be impressed by the way in which such an extraordinary range of geographical features and people has been blended into one nation. It would take a long time to see the whole place and the more time you spend on the road simply getting from place to place, no matter how enjoyable that is, the less time you'll have to savor the small-town pleasures and back road oddities that may well provide your strongest memories.
There are many beautiful places to see and activities to enjoy while you are in the United States. To see details of a city that interests you, just click on the link.
