The US is so big there are endless things to visit! There are cities, mountains, beaches, and deserts. Some parts of the US are world famous. Car and plane are the most common ways to travel. Some things are very far apart, so driving can take many hours or even days. Some people make a special driving trip called a road trip, where driving between places is as important as visiting the places themselves.

Here are a few places you might like to visit:

There are tall buildings and more yellow taxis than you can count. Here are our top 4 NYC destinations when traveling with children.
