What is a Best Place?

These Best Places to Visit lists are catalogues of top sights to visit within a particular destination. The best places are sights that you would not want to miss when visiting a place.

Ranking Approach

Each sight was ranked using its value and time ratios. The ranking methodology is based on the real experience. But it follows a few key principles.

  • Value: places of interests that charge no or affordable admission fees score higher. Almost any sight covered by America the Beautiful annual pass wins over other locations due to the incredible value it provides.
  • Time: sights that are easier to reach score higher. The more remote the sight is, the more exceptional it needs to be to compensate for longer travel time.
