#us-travel

I've visited all 50 states and most major US tourist attractions - some of which I found overrated. I wouldn't plan trips around the Four Corners Monument or Mount Rushmore. I'd also recommend avoiding Salem, Massachusetts, in October due to the immense crowds. I love visiting kitschy or unique tourist landmarks on a road trip or weekend getaway. In fact, after visiting all 50 states solo, I've enjoyed my short visits to nearly all the major tourist attractions in the United States.

It's a momentous time to talk about the best places to go in the US: In 2026, the country will celebrate its semiquincentennial birthday. America probably looks a bit differently right now than our forefathers could have predicted when they founded the United States a whopping 250 years ago-I imagine they'd have some notes for us (for what it's worth, I have some notes for them too).

Canadians have been avoiding US travel in response to Trump's policies on tariffs and annexation.
