]]> The Columbia River Gorge, split between the northwestern U.S. states of Oregon and Washington, is one of the most scenic and beautiful natural areas in this region of the country. Following a route that runs 80 miles through the cascade range, this canyon is up to 2,000 feet deep and provides a spectacular range of views. While the gorge is beautiful in and of itself throughout its entirety, make sure to visit these three special spots on your trip there.

Multnomah Falls

On the Oregon side of the river, you will find Multnomah Falls, the most famous spot in the gorge. This waterfall cascades a total of 627 feet down from the mountains to the Columbia River and provides two incredible lookout spots at which you can marvel at the area’s beauty.

Beacon Rock State Park

Moving over to Washington, Beacon Rock State Park is another one of the gems of the Columbia River Gorge. 32 miles east of Vancouver, a massive basalt volcanic plug rises 848 feet above the river and the area around it provides beautiful hiking trails and spots from which to see both the river and the namesake rock.

Bonneville Dam

This man-made structure in the river was built in 1934 and protects the surrounding region from flooding in the area’s rainy conditions. You will marvel at the scope of the structure and the force with which the water pours through it from the idyllic meadows on either side of the river.

]]> Are you tired of hearing about San Francisco, Seattle, and Portland when planning trips to the United States’ West Coast? These popular destinations and big cities sure have a lot to offer, but why not venture off of the beaten path and check out some smaller, more charming destinations?

Here are America’s most underrated West Coast destinations, one in each state that makes up the region.

Hood River, Oregon

While not technically located on the Pacific Coast, Hood River is a charming small town located on the Columbia River just a couple of hours from its discharge into the ocean. Known as a windsurfing hotspot, Hood River is full of outdoor activities and craft breweries that you will love.

San Luis Obispo, California

California’s Central Coast region is home to San Luis Obispo, one of America’s most pleasant small cities. Here, you will find 18th-century Spanish missions as well as an international film festival and plentiful hiking trails.

Sequim, Washington

Just a stone’s throw from Seattle is the small town of Sequim, which is scenically located at the base of the towering Olympic Mountains. Sequim has sport fishing and crabbing galore, but its claim to fame is its gorgeous lavender fields.

Many of the world’s top museums are located in cities that have tons to offer, but these museums are so good that they’re some of the most popular attractions in their respective cities.

Here are the world’s five most-visited museums.

The Louvre: Paris, France

The world’s most visited museum is also probably its most famous. The Louvre is a world-class collection of art, including the Mona Lisa and the Venus de Milo.

National Museum of China: Beijing, China

The National Museum of China comes in at second on the list. Located in Tiananmen Square, this museum combines art and history, all related to China.

]]> The capital of the United States might not be the first place where you think bargain, and that assumption is correct for many reasons. Although hotel prices are not so low in Washington, there are so many affordable things to do, see, and eat, that it makes it worth it. If you are looking to experience history and culture in a big city, you don’t always have to be a big spender. Visit Washington, DC and find out how far your dollar can really stretch.

What To Do

What makes Washington, DC such an incredible city is that it provides free admission to almost every museum, and there are many to choose from. There are a number of Smithsonian museums scattered about the city, 18 in all, making it impossible for someone to be left out in the dark.

One of the more notable Smithsonian museums is the National Air and Space Museum, which is an amazing institution for people young and old. There are so many hands-on exhibits to choose from but also exhibits that are more inclined toward the adult crowd. The museum pulls from both science and pop culture in their exhibits, so there is no way you can miss this place when you’re in Washington.

Something that few people know they can do is send in a request to tour the White House. Again, this service is also free but takes some preparation. If you’re an international traveler, you need to contact your embassy at least a month in advance to secure a spot, and for American citizens through a congressman. However, the process is well worth it. So don’t just stare at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, take a look inside yourself!

The National Mall is another must-see site when in Washington, DC. This long landscaped park has a pond in the middle and grassy areas as well. On one end is the US Capitol, another free place to visit, highly recommended. At the other end is the Lincoln Memorial, which is a beautiful place to enjoy the amazing architecture and catch some shade in the summertime.

While you’re at the National Mall, swing by the Hirshhorn Museum, a wonderful art museum located close by. This museum is again, free, and has a beautiful sculptural garden as well as unique contemporary art exhibitions inside the building.

Where To Go Out

Washington, DC has a thriving nightlife scene. If you are looking to enjoy some great jazz up close and personal, go to Blues Alley Club, located at the bottom of the Georgetown neighborhood. Adams Morgan is another fun area to go out in with tons of bars and restaurants and a youthful crowd.

Where To Eat

If you’re looking for a usual place to eat, check out Ledo’s Pizza. This restaurant is famous for their unusual pizza pies which are shaped into rectangles and cut into square pieces. There are a few locations throughout the city, including one in Georgetown, and everyone will find something on their classic menu.
