Top 3 Famous Monuments and Parks You Must Visit In The US

While most people these days are looking for eccentric vacation destinations or at the very least extremely luxurious ones there is a wealth of monuments and natural parks that are stunning and easy to access without having your experience ruined by a huge crowd.

Here are some of the obvious choices you might have overlooked when you planned your last vacation:

Kentucky Horse Country – Lexington

Drive through the picturesque landscape that boasts extremely green grass, hordes of horses all framed by subtle fences. The limestone content of the soil is said to be the reason behind the distinctive taste of Kentucky bourbon as well as the quality of the thoroughbred horses.

Niagara Falls – New York and Ontario

While most people stay away from Niagara Falls due to the crowded and often kitsch atmosphere created by the many casinos and gift shops, the raw power of the waterfall is enough to capture every visitor and overwhelm with its sheer grandeur. The ice wine, made from grapes picked in below freezing temperatures is a delicious treat few people that visit actually know of.

Monument Valley – Arizona

While most would recognize it from movies or commercials the site is indeed powerful to see up-close. You can take a guided jeep tour, hike or go on a self-guided drive in this superb Navajo Tribal land.
