[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am well travelled and have been to a lot of beautiful countries but secret...  there are plenty of stunning locations throughout the US.

There are parts of UT that are so cool, stunning OR and N CA coast.  Sedona of course (off season if possible). Santa Fe and Taos are the best kept secret.  I'm not into Maine but it is beautiful and so is Vermont.  Jackson and Boise are amazing.  There are a few amazing places even down in TX - small towns like Marfa are so interesting.  CO as a state offers so many points of beauty to explore.

There's just no listing the most beautiful places in the world because there are truly so many - there is no most beautiful for me.  Just memorable in one way or another, often based on who I'm with and the conditions like weather, crowds, season, etc.

Tahiti is beautiful.  Mongolia is unbelievable.  Parts of S. France and of course the Greek islands like Milos and Ischia/Positano/S. Italy will take your breath away.

Your question is like asking who the most beautiful actress or actor is of all time.  There's never just one. I'm sure all of us have been to places that were crazy beautiful - so instead of focusing on beauty just go to a place you've wanted to go that isn't ugly!!!![/quote]

I think the better traveled you are the more you realize how lucky we have it (based on only natural beauty) here in the U.S.  and how fortunate our ancestors were to preserve so much.  Our national parks are not only incredibly beautiful but the most accessible and well done in the world.  Accomplishing this now under current conditions would be impossible.[/quote]

I couldn't agree more!!! We need to recognize this so we don't lose it.  I get so annoyed that everyone here is a "grass is greener" type person that never explores their own country.  I lived abroad many years and have traveled extensively.  We have something really amazing here that is worth protecting.  It's also worth encouraging others to see it - I mean really see it...

What we set up with our National Parks and BLM land was so forward thinking.  If only we can get on board with climate change initiatives so it doesn't all burn down in forest fires, melt off with global warming, or disappear with rising tides and floods.[/quote]

I’m the PP you quoted and I’m right there with you.

Sad to see so many people equate finding America the most beautiful country in the world with being maga or a yokel.  It tells me they glamorize abroad and look down their noses at all the places accessible to those in “flyover country”.[/quote]
