I have always been very interested in visiting and touring around scenic places when I travel to countries in different parts of the world. There are places so amazingly beautiful all over the world. Here in western Canada, the Canadian Rockies have always attracted visitors from other provinces and countries. Which would you say are the places of interest for visitors to your Country or State ? Geographically, architecturally, historically, or in other unique ways !

This Sunday , the Martin Luther King Memorial is to officially open in Washington D.C.. This is the new site among many you can see if you come to the D.C. area.But there are all the others too The Washington Monument, The Lincoln Memorial, the Capitol, the White House. A fun attraction is the Air and Space Museum. And we are coming into one of the perfect seasons to visit, the fall! It won't be too hot or too cold.

Hello Sarah. Yeah, Fall would be a nice time to visit, not too hot or not too cold, as you said. Certainly, many historical places to see. The Air and Space Museum would be a place to see too ! Thank you so much.

Well, tourists here do seem to love Disney World, Sea World, and the numerous beaches. Racing fans flock to Daytona Beach. For those who love to party, there's the nightlife of Miami Beach. Florida is essentially a tourist state. Some areas, such as Orlando, are more touristy than others--especially during the winter. I don't really understand why anyone would want to visit Florida, but, then, I am even less clear on why any sane person would want to live here. I know how I ended up here, and I have every intention of moving back out of this state just as quickly as I can.

Florida is the State where holiday-makers from States and countries often talk about to enjoy, with many things to see and beautiful beaches to enjoy, right ? Mianmi Beach is really very popular. You are thinking of moving back out ? Really ? I suppose residents in Florida would find other places to enjoy the holidays.

Hello Cher. Niagara Falls is really a place of interest for tourists. I have taken a boat-ride there once, a very impressive view of the Falls. And, yes, there were many tourists from different countries on the boat too that day. They were all so busy taking pictures.

The Great Himalays. The Tigers in Sunderban. THe Tiger in Sundarban are known as The Royal Bengal Tiger for its fighting spirit. You will find Bactrian Camel at Ladakh. Khar Dungla, the highest Motor able road in the world also is in Ladakh. There are scenic beauty every where.

I live in Denmark and most tourists choose to visit Copenhagen. The most famous sights in Copenhagen are Tivoli, the queen's castle and the little mermaid, but there are other interesting places to visit for instanse some of the art museums or the historical museums. Last time I visited Copenhagen I went to "Glyptoteket" that is place full of sculptures from around the world. Outside Copenhagen I would recommend Odense (the place where the fairytale writer, Hans Christian Andersen was born), Silkeborg and Skanderborg (beautiful places with make lakes), Skagen in the very north of Denmark or some of the small islands.

Im an Egyptian nd in Egypt, there are plenty of places of interest for tourists. Such places include the pyramids of Giza for sure, all the temples in Luxor nd Aswan, Khan el khalili in cairo in which hundreds of antique,jewellery nd souvenir shops exist. Moreover, tourists are attracted to the coastal city of Sharm el Sheikh wth its high class hotels nd beaches nd shops. Really a nice country for tourists.

Thank you for your response. Oh yes, I have been dreaming of visiting Egypt for a long time now, but have not made it yet. I hope I can some day soon. Pyramids of Giza certainly are places of interest. I have seen beautiful pictures of the Pyramids and the River Nile.
