Of these countries, the U.S. receives by far the largest amount of travellers. New York , San Francisco , Chicago , Boston , Los Angeles , Seattle are only some of the well known and exciting cities. These places may not have as many old monuments as you usually find in Europe, but sheer natural beauty makes up for the lack of history. The Everglades , Yellowstone and Yosemite are among the best National parks in the world.
