Dallas, Texas. The biggest city in the state that has the biggest everything. Dallas is full of opulent wealth and southern accents, but don't assume that you have seen this town before you have been there. There is plenty to do that is a little off the beaten track.

The beautiful island of Galveston, Texas boasts many ways to add allure to vacations. Incredible nightlife, scenic vistas, and outstanding outdoor recreation make this a great place to visit. Numerous events will keep you entertained throughout the year at this Texas island destination.

Texas isn't the only place with Big Things. Orlando, Florida, is home to the world's biggest Hard Rock Cafe and the state's biggest refractor telescope in Florida at the Orlando Science Center (geeky, but very cool). Orlando is a place of contradictions:

As well as being the 'City of a Hundred Church Bells' Montreal is also known as 'The City of a Hundred Cultures.' It is these two characteristics (noise and variety) that keep this city humming with the vibrancy that makes it so popular with residents and visitors alike.

Thanks to the construction of Disneyland, the once sleepy farming community of Anaheim, CA has become a kind of Mecca for the world's kids. While Disneyworld in Florida is bigger and perhaps more exciting, Disneyland is the original Happiest Place on Earth and no visit to Anaheim is complete without visiting it.

You scarcely need a travel guide to help you conjure up images of flashing lights, casinos, crazy rides and big shows. Everything is over-the-top in Sin City and that's just the way the locals like it. If you are visiting Vegas for the first time consider it mandatory to include the following on your itinerary.

Boston is the home of Irish America and proudly shares its roots with visitors. This year's St Patrick's Day Parade is the best chance to share a little of the spirit of the Old Country. Boston is also a strong base of American art and culture, and has more than its share of off-the-beaten-path attractions in which to rub shoulders with the locals.

Newark is both a stones-throw from Manhatten and a world away, in terms of attractions, culture, architecture and food. Instead of competing with the heart of NY City, Newark is capitalizing on the very things that have previously kept visitors away – the seedy alleys, run-down neighborhoods and rough-and-ready reputation of this still blue-collar city.

Denver, Colorado, is the place for any vacationer who likes a little wilderness to spice their city-based getaway. While Denver is a bustling city with plenty of places to eat, drink and shop, it is the Rocky Mountains that draw most visitors – powder snow in winter and hot hiking in summer are hard to resist.

Miami, the city of Vice (the 1980's TV show, that is), heat, beaches, and the jumpoff point for Disneyworld, the Keys and retirees living cheek-by-jowl with the young, bronzed party crowd. Miami is known by many for its kitsch, but there is much more to it than meets the eye.

There really are a ton of things to see and do in Atlanta. The regular highlights include Centennial Olympic Park — a 21-acre sprawl in the middle of downtown Atlanta and site of the 1996 Olympics; the Georgia Aquarium, the world’s largest and a no-regrets way to empty your wallet; Underground Atlanta, a dedicated six city blocks have been transformed into a hopping mini-burb.

Hawaii has been a US state for less than fifty years and retains its sense of being a nation unto itself. Although the facilities are like those of any developed country, the natural scenery and laid-back local attitude really does make this collection of tropical islands the playground of America.
