America is a vast country and very different from Europe in culture as well as the lay of the land. So plan for a longer vacation when visiting USA.
New York City
This city is a must if you’re visiting the USA. On returning home, the first question will be ‘How was New York? You will need stamina and time to explore even a fraction of this city’s iconic landmarks and neighbourhoods. Not to be missed are the East Village and Brooklyn, sleek shops of 5th Avenue, Metropolitan Museum of Art or catch a show at Broadway. New Jersey, within the New York metropolitan jurisdiction has the largest desi population in the western hemisphere. And remember, winters can be severe in NY, so go prepared if visiting in winter.
Orlando-Walt Disney World, Orlando-Florida
Celebrate childhood and discover that being a kid is a state of mind - age really doesn’t matter. The place has something for people of all ages and you’ll feel right at home in the sub-tropical climate of Florida. Orlando has a bit of everything for everyone and is an interesting place to explore.
Branson, Missouri
Located at the base of the Ozark Mountains in south-west Missouri, Branson is the “Family Friendly Las Vegas” and retains the charms of old time America. The Branson Strip (Main Road) is lined with dozens of theatres that perform family oriented Country Western acts and Comedy routines with a yesteryear ambience. Other attractions are the Silver Dollar City – 1880’s mining town themed park, Table Rock Lake and Museums.
Grand Canyon, Arizona
A mile deep, 18 miles across and 277 miles in length, the word Grand is inadequate to describe it. This natural wonder is a work in progress for the last six million years by the mighty Colorado River. The South Rim is popular with tourists, hence crowded but with many amenities. The North Rim is for hiking, camping and suitable for experienced and physically fit adults.
Los Angeles, California
This is not an easy city to explore if you plan to do it using public transport. This is a vast, spread out metropolis (500 sq. miles), and will exhaust you if you do not plan well or have your own transportation. Find what interests you and then explore. LA is highly recommended for Hollywood movie buffs and visual art practitioners looking to peek behind the curtain.
