I want to show you my favorite places so here is my USA top 100.

I have to say the USA is the most diverse country in the world from the barren deserts of the southwest to the Caribbean coast of Puerto Rico the USA has it all.

Hawaiian island

Kawaii

Hawaiian island of Kawaii of all the Hawaiian islands Kauai is the oldest making it the most beautiful and diverse it’s nicknamed the garden island and when you go there you’ll understand why one of my favorite places is the Nepali coast.

There are very few places in the world if any that match the beauty of this coastline the Nepali coast is filled with sea cliffs that rise 3000 feet from the ocean contrasted with deep narrow valleys that empty to the sea below.

There are several ways to experience the Nepali coast one of the best ways is by helicopter it can be a little bit pricey but you’ll be able to get some of the best views of Nepalis coastal cliffs and valleys.

Molokai

one of the most fascinating Hawaiian islands to me is Molokai it’s definitely one of the lesser-known Hawaiian islands.

But i have to say it has some of Hawaii’s most incredible scenery one of my favorite features is Molokai sea cliffs they are the tallest in the world with some being almost 4000 feet high.

There’s also stunning waterfalls tucked away in the islands lush canyons and just like Kauai i’d say one of the best ways to see Molokai would be from a helicopter flight i mean you’ll be able to witness the island’s raw view

Alaska

now after Hawaii we’re going to head up to Alaska when you think of antenna wilderness Alaska is it and it’s just a land full of some of the world’s biggest mountains and glaciers and it’s one of the few places in the USA where you can see the aurora borealis.

Aleutian islands

Now one of the most wild places in Alaska is the Aleutian islands i think this may be one of the most incredible destinations in all the US now located in the Bering sea.

The Aleutian islands are made up of around 300 islands with over 57 volcanoes now the landscapes here remind me of Iceland with its volcanic terrain in hearse.

Lucian islands

Not only this place beautiful but its full history during world war ii Japan landed and occupied two of the Lucian islands making it the only invasion on US soil during world war ii.

I mean this place just honestly blows my mind if you ever want a true adventure you gotta visit these islands.

Puerto Rico

Now after Alaska let’s head over to the complete opposite side of the country to visit Puerto Rico now located in the Caribbean next to the Dominican republic Puerto Rico is a US territory.

And is home to tropical landscapes and scenic beaches the capital of Puerto Rico is San Juan and was founded by Spanish colonists back in 1521 making it the oldest European established city in the US.

US virgin islands

Now right next to Puerto Rico is another US territory called the US virgin islands the territory is made up of around 50 islands with the three major ones being saint Croix, St John and Saint Thomas.

The US perched these islands from Denmark back in 1917 for 25 million dollars and that’s a pretty good deal if you ask me now today the virgin islands are an excellent place to go if you want to experience some Caribbean scenery.

California

Now when it rains the salt flats become the world’s largest mirror and it’s just a truly a surreal place that you have to visit if you’re ever in Utah.

Moab

Now we’re gonna head down to Moab located in Utah this may be one of the best places to go if you want to be at the center of the action. There’s so many things and places around Moab you can do and explore. One of my favorites is the Fisher Towers.

Fisher Towers

it’s just about a 40 minutes drive outside of Moab it’s home to the titan tower which is claimed to be the largest freestanding rock tower in the US with a prominence of 700 feet.

I mean freaking crazy you can do about a four mile round trip hike and experience all the towers from below and which is such a cool hike with incredible views also there’s the nearby castle valley which is home to impressive mesas in the castle ton tower.

Corona Arch

Now another cool spot right outside of Moab is Corona Arch now to get to the arch it’s a fairly easy hike of 2.4 miles round trip.

If you want to avoid the heat I recommend doing the hike early in the morning or in the evening it’s just such a beautiful arch.

Arches National Park

The nearest national park to Moab is Arches it’s located just a few minutes outside the city it’s home to one of Utah’s most iconic symbols to the delicate arch.

Now to get to the Delica arch it’s about a three mile round trip hike, it actually is a huge arch. Witnessing one of Utah’s most famous locations Arches National Park is also home to more beautiful rock formations that you have to check out.

Zion National Park

Now after we’re going to visit Zion National Park, Zion is just out of this world, the pictures and videos don’t do his justice it’s home to steep red rock cliffs that are thousands of feet high.

One of my favorite and most famous places in Zion is the hike the angel’s landing, it’s about a five mile round trip hike that’s famous for its sketchy chain trail.

Crossed the bridge over the virgin river and headed up the trail hiked up some steep switch backs until you reached the top angel’s lining is famous for its thousand-foot drop-offs and chains that lead the way. I hope you can hike angel’s landing sometime in your life afterwards.

Bryce Canyon National Park

We’re going to visit Bryce Canyon National Park located about two hours drive from Zion. Bryce canyon is famous for its crimson colored hoodoos there are more hoodoos here than anywhere else on earth.

When you visit Bryce canyon the best viewpoints are on its rim of the amphitheater such as sunrise and sunset point you can also hike down the canyon to get up close and personal with the Hudus.

If you come in the winter time the white snow contrasted with the orange rock creates an incredible sight definitely add this to your USA bucket list.

Florida

Florida Keys

After we’re going to head over to the Florida Keys. So the Florida Keys are coral kit archipelago looking right off of southern Florida it’s basically the american version of the Bahamas.

What’s really impressive is that all the Islands are connected by a road making it one of the coolest drives in the US. I was out in Florida and i really wanted to drive all the way to the end of the keys.

When you drive on the bridges you’ll be able to see the blue caribbean sea, one of the most impressive ones is the seven mile bridge at the time of its construction it was one of the longest bridges in the world.

I mean just looks like it never ends the final destination on the keys takes you to the city of key west it’s the most southern place in the continent of the US.

Miami

After the keys we’re going to visit Miami. Now located in southeastern Florida, Miami has a lot going on if you love warm weather amazing beaches and a great nightlife.

You gotta give Miami a visit summers may be hot and humid here but it’s a great place to come during the winter months.

Orlando

Alaska

Anchorage

Now we’re going to head back up to Alaska to visit Anchorage. Now located on a peninsula in the cook inlet Anchorage is the largest city in Alaska with over 40 percent of the population living there.

One cool thing about Anchorage is that it’s equal distances to cities such as Tokyo Frankfurt and New York and it is a 10 hour flight from 90 of the industrialized world making it a major hub for international cargo flights.

Denali National Park

Now from Anchorage you can make the two-hour drive to one of the most wild places in Alaska, Denali National Park.

It’s home to the Denali mountain which is not only the highest point in north america but it’s also the third most prominent and isolated peak in the world. I mean it’s just a behemoth of a mountain.

Big Island

now after Alaska we’re gonna head back to Hawaii to visit the Big Island now also known as the island of Hawaii.

This is the largest and youngest of the Hawaiian islands it’s also the most volcanically active so you gotta check out the Hawaii volcanoes national park.
