Portland, OR

Portland, OR

A victory for urban planning that hides countless green spaces and easy access to the country amongst a heavy populated center, Oregon’s capital is also known as the ‘City of Roses’, and was – astonishingly – named after developers tossed a coin. Each wanted to name the city after their own hometowns, with the landowner from Portland (Maine) winning a game of luck that prevented Portland form being forever known as Boston instead.

Seattle, Washington

Arty, alternative Seattle might rain like India during monsoon season at times, but there’s little else depressing about it. From the iconic Space Needle (only worth ascending should the weather be dramatically better than average, unless you want to be staring at the insight of a cloud or watching raindrops drip off the window) to a lively outdoor culture and fashionable coffee & nightlife scene, anyone who likes things up to the minute and different is going to love this city.

Colorado Springs, CO

Colorado Springs, CO

As far as inspirational, unavoidably beautiful outdoor adventures spots go, Colorado Springs has to be pretty hard to match. Watch the US Olympic team train, spend an afternoon at the bottom of a 1000ft gold mine or explore the incredible trails of Pike’s Peak. Sleep it off in a satisfied, energy-drained slumber and then do the same again the next day: what more could you ask for from a stunning, adventure-ridden region?

Denver, CO

Denver, CO

Cleverly nicknamed as ‘Mile High City’ (Denver does in fact sit exactly one mile above sea level), and backed by the kind of mountain range that instantly justifies the arty name, Denver arguably has one main draw: clear air, and the chance to sneak off into the Colorado Rockys for a quick bit of hill walking, skiing or rock climbing at next to no notice.

Long Beach, CA

Long Beach, CA

Just outside of Las Angeles and bordering Orange County, Long Beach is one of the more famous California beach cities in the southern region of the state. Technically part of the greater Los Angeles metropolitan area, Long Beach is nevertheless its own unique breed of awesome, and there’s a reason the place is as well-known as Malibu, Miami Beach, and others.

Los Angeles, CA

Los Angeles, CA

Thanks to Hollywood, perhaps no city anywhere on the planet will be so instantly familiar to first-time arrivals as Los Angeles. From its wide, sandy beaches to its mountain vistas, palm trees and signature skyline, you’ve seen L.A. before, but nothing you’ve seen on television will prepare you for the real thing. Yes, you will see bleached blondes and BMWs aplenty, and yes, it really is 70 degrees and sunny most of the year, but there’s a lot more to L.A. than botox and sunglasses.

Monterey, CA

Monterey, CA

A Californian town noted for it’s literary heritage and Mexican heritage as well as a beautifully rugged Pacific coastline, Monterey is an atypical Californian attraction, a far cry from the sun-drenched beaches you might pick for a typical summer blow out, but deeper and more cultural in its outlook.

Phoenix, AZ

Phoenix, AZ

Spread over close to 2,000km of desert – and hot enough to show it in the summer – Phoenix basks in a seemingly endless summer sunshine that will have the sun-starved running for cover. Learn to deal with the heat (or come at winter), though, and Phoenix has plenty of desert-tinged and artistic attractions to get stuck into.

Reno, NV

Reno, NV

Although Reno is known as the northern gambling center for Nevada the increase in California Indian gaming casinos has really hurt the casinos of Reno and Sparks.

One of the United States’ quickest expansions in population is taking place here and at 225,221 as of 2010, it is the second largest city in Nevada.

Sacramento, CA

Sacramento, CA

While Sacramento formed as long ago as the mid 19th century, it was the gold rush that sent the city in to a state of fervor, and propelled thousands of newcomers into town to pan and dig for their livelihood.

Salt Lake City, UT

The second largest city in California and the ninth largest in the entire US, San Diego is a melting pot of agriculture, tourism, telecommunications, ship-building, and more.

The Valley has anything you need or want: great food, great fun, and definitely great shopping.

San Francisco, CA

San Francisco, CA

From the Victorian architecture to the notoriously steep inclines to the Pacific coastline and the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco is one of the oldest, most beautiful, and amazing cities in California, and definitely the world.

Chicago, IL

Chicago is one of those great American cities that almost defies any sort of description you try to attach to it. Sure, it’s a major hub in the Midwest, and between the blues and jazz festivals, Lollapalooza in Grant Park, the Bulls, the White Sox, the Cubs, the Blackhawks, the Bears, Greektown, Hyde Park, Steppenwolf Theatre, Northwestern University, and Union Station, you might try and find some way to label her, but Chicago is more than just the sights and sounds, it is a way of life. The city hosts the third most prolific movie industry in the nation, and Americans have grown up on films such as “The Untouchables” and “The Fugitive”, and more recently “Batman Begins”.
