Những thắng cảnh đẹp có thể bạn chưa thấy ?
ALABAMA: Mobile Bay bills itself as "secretly awesome," and its many tourist attractions prove this to be true. Attend the world's oldest Mardi Gras celebration, eat some fresh seafood, go kayaking and fishing, and take in the beautiful views of the Gulf of Mexico.
ALASKA: The ocean, ice, and mountains all meet at Kenai Fjords National Park in Seward, Alaska. Enjoy the park by foot or take a boat cruise along the coast in the summer.
ARIZONA: It's very easy to take a great photograph of The Wave, but not so easy to get there. In order to visit this landmark, you must apply for a daily permit. Even if you receive the permit, you'll have a rigorous hike to this hidden gem. However, we think the view is worth the journey.
ARKANSAS: The Crystal Bridges Museum contains artwork from famous artists like Georgia O'Keefe and Benjamin West. It was built by Alice Walton, heiress of Wal-Mart, as a tribute to Bentonville, the town where Wal-Mart got its start as Walton's Five-and-Dime in the 1940s.
CALIFORNIA: William Randolph Hearst had the Hearst Castle built in 1947, and now it's open to tourists. You can tour the gardens and all of the notable spaces in this beautiful 165-room palace.
COLORADO: Visit the tallest dunes in North America at the Great Sand Dunes National Park. You can hike through the park, cool off in Medano Creek, and even go sand sledding.
CONNECTICUT: Gillette Castle was built in 1919 as a home for the famous actor and playwright, William Gillette. Though the castle's exterior looks like a cold medieval fortress, its interior is full of homey touches. You can tour the inside of the home from Memorial Day weekend to Columbus Day.
DELAWARE: Located on Pea Patch Island, Fort Delaware was built in 1859 and used to hold Confederate prisoners of war. You can now access the fort via ferry and be transported back to the summer of 1854, with the help of costumed interpreters.
FLORIDA: If you’re visiting Key West, the southernmost point buoy is a must-see. This massive buoy marks the southernmost point in the continental United States and is only 90 miles from Cuba.
GEORGIA: Providence Canyon is also known as Georgia’s “Little Grand Canyon.” It was formed because of poor farming practices back in the 1800s, but the area is now considered a geographic wonder.

HAWAII: The 333,000-acre Volcanoes National Park is home to two active volcanoes: Maunaloa and Kilauea. We suggest driving along Crater Rim Drive, which circles the summit of Kilauea.
IDAHO: Balanced Rock is exactly what it sounds like: a 48-foot rock that is perched precariously on an approximately 3-foot pedestal. After getting a close-up look at the rock, have a picnic in nearby Balanced Rock Park.

MARYLAND: Assateague and Chincoteague are two beautiful islands off the coast of Maryland. Though the islands straddle both Virginia and Maryland, we're placing them in Maryland since they can be accessed from Ocean City. Both islands are full of natural life, but the highlight of visiting is viewing the wild ponies that live there.

SOUTH DAKOTA: The Corn Palace in Mitchell, South Dakota, calls itself "The World's Only Corn Palace," and we're pretty sure that's correct. Every year, artists create new murals on the outside of the building made entirely of naturally colored corn as a tribute to the building's history. The Corn Palace also hosts concerts, sports games, and other events.
TENNESSEE: The Lost Sea, which is 140 feet below ground level, is the largest underground lake in the country. A guided tour will give you the chance to observe the area's caverns, which are full of interesting geological formations. You will also get to take a glass bottom boat ride along the lake.
TEXAS: Bracken Cave is home to the world's largest bat colony. Millions of the winged creatures can be spotted at dusk when they emerge from their cave to hunt for insects. It's best to view this natural wonder during July and August, because baby bats that were born in June will just be starting to fly.
UTAH: Natural Bridges National Monument was Utah's first national monument. It features three stunning natural bridges, named "Kachina," "Owachomo," and "Sipapu" in honor of Native Americans who previously lived in the area. Hiking trails and overlooks allow for close-up views of these natural phenomena.
VERMONT: Lake Champlain ferries can take you from Vermont to upstate New York in just over an hour. Try taking a ferry from Burlington to Port Kent, New York, and take in the beautiful mountain views. You might even catch sight of "Champ," the rumored Lake Champlain monster.
VIRGINIA: Luray Caverns make up the largest series of caverns in the eastern U.S. As well as exploring this cave of stalagmites and stalactites, you can also visit the Car and Carriage Caravan Museum, get lost in the garden maze, and fly through the Rope Adventure Park.
WASHINGTON: Olympic National Park sits on more than 922,000 acres and contains three major ecosystems — forest, alpine and coastal — which means you'll have a wide variety of photograph opportunities.
WASHINGTON, DC: The International Spy Museum has the largest public collection of espionage materials in the world. Visitors will learn about the strategies used by spies during famous missions and can even complete a mission of their own in the Operation Spy exhibit.
WEST VIRGINIA: Harpers Ferry was the site of many historical events, including the largest surrender of Federal troops during the Civil War. Visiting this park is like stepping into another time period, especially when you attend one of the "Living History" workshops, where you experience realistic scenes from the 19th century with the help of costumed interpreters.
WISCONSIN: Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin Estate is an architectural masterpiece that served as a springboard for much of Wright's later work. You can take a variety of different tours of the estate and have lunch at the scenic Riverview Terrace Cafe.
WYOMING: Grand Teton National Park offers more than 200 miles of trails, some over challenging mountain terrain and some alongside scenic lake shores. You can also float along the Snake River, which runs through the park.
